22 Messrs. Robinson and Kloss on Birds from the 
months, wherever there are suitable open spaces. It is 
particularly abundant in a big marsh near Kuala Lumpur, 
whence Seimund has secured numerous specimens together 
with examples of C. spilonotus and C. melanoleucus . 
44. Astur poliopsis. 
Astur poliopsis (Hume) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 110. 
Two adult females and an immature bird from the interior 
of Trang agree well with this race and differ from the typical 
A. badius of the Indian Peninsula in their smaller size 
and in the absence of the rufous nuchal collar. In the 
Singapore Museum there are specimens of this species from 
u Singapore,” but their provenance is somewhat doubtful. 
45. Astur soloensis. 
Astur soloensis (Lath.) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 114. 
Very rare in the Malay Peninsula, whence we have only 
one specimen from Langkawi, shot at the beginning of 
December 1907. 
46. ICTINAETUS MALAYENSIS. 
Ictinaetus ( Neopus ) malayensis (Rheinvv.); Sharpe, tom. 
cit. p. 257; Robinson, p. 171. 
The Black Eagle is rare in the plains, though often seen 
in the mountains of the Malay Peninsula. A fine adult 
female was obtained near Chong, in Trang, on December 
17th, 1909. 
47. Spizaetus nipalensis. 
Spizaetus nipalensis (Hodgs.) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 267; 
Robinson, Journ. Fed. Malay States Mus. iv. p. 132 (1909). 
An immature male, exactly agreeing with others from the 
Himalayas, was obtained by one of our Dyaks in the hills 
of Pulau Terutau in March 1909. The species has been 
procured in Southern China by Styan, but has not ap¬ 
parently been recorded from Burma and Tenasserim 
(Blanford, Faun. Brit. Ind., Birds, iii. p. 333, 1895). The 
present locality shews therefore a very considerable extension 
of range.
