* This species is of course tolerably certain to occur in Sumatra but we 
cannot find a record : it is scarce in the Malay Peninsula but has been taken 
on an island in the Straits of Malacca. 
2 Seebohm and Vorderman both give “Borneo” for this species appa- 
rently on the strength of a specimen in the Leyden Museum collected by 
Schwaner. Vorderman also gives “Java" which is not accepted by 
Bartels and Stresemann, 
J At this distant date Schlegel’s records (1864) need confirmation as to 
locality. The species has not since been recorded from Malaysia and old 
specimens labelled as il alpina" in the Raffles Museum from' the Natuna 
Islands are Erolia testacea.
