* The status of birds occurring in Java and Sumatra seems uncertain. 
Specimens in the Raffles Museum from Kcrinchi, Sumatra seem to be 
domesticated hybrids, but free-flying birds certainly occur in Sumatra 
although we cannot say if in colour they show signs of domestication. If 
Muller's types are crossbred ducks this species should be known as 
A . leucoftera Blyth (Tenasserim),
