This species was described by Dr. Sharpe from a single male example 
procured by Mr. L, Wray on Gunong Batu Putch. It appears to be 
a well-defined form, and not a mere colour-variety of P. montanus as Dr. 
Sharpe was inclined to* believe. I11 March, 1898, Mr. A. L. Butler 
procured a female of this species on Gunong Ijas, (4,000 feet) ; it was 
at first identified by Dr. Hartert as a female of P. montanus , but subsequently 
correctly determined as P. croceus and the distinctive differences were indicated. 
In 1 899, the £ Skeat ' Expedition procured an adult male at Gunong Inas, Perak, 
(4,000 feet). Two adult females in the present collection resemble the 
female of P. montanus in the coloration of the underparts, but the top of the 
head and back are dull glossy black, instead of dark grey, and the lower back 
and rump are clear orange-yellow, instead of dusky-yellow. They resemble the 
male type of P. croceus in all respects, but the chin is white and the throat 
yellow as in the female of P. montanus. 
4 The habits of the all species of Minivets in the Peninsula are very similar. 
Only P. flammifer is at all common below three thousand feet, the others being 
usually found in parties of three or four flying about the branches of lofty 
trees, but never staying long in one place. As a rule, the sexes seem to keep 
together, and males are very much commoner than females.’
