Northern Portion oj the Malay Peninsula. 
A winter visitor to the Peninsula, and abundant in certain 
districts from November to March. 
The specimen of Erythromyias muelieri noted (Robinson, 
p. 188) as found dead on the coast of Kuantan, Pahang, 
which was obtained by Mr. W. H. Craddock and identified 
by the late Col. Bingham, turns out on examination of the 
skin to belong to this species. 
155. CyANOPTILA CYANOMEEiENA. 
Xanthopygia cyanomelcena (Temm.); Sharpe, Cat. Birds 
B. M. iv. p. 251 ; Robinson, p. 189. 
A fine adult male was shot on Pulau Terutau by one of 
our collectors in March 1909. The species is evidently a 
rare winter visitor to the Peninsula. 
156. Hypothymis azurea. 
Hypothymis azurea (Bodd.); Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 274 ; 
Robinson, p. 189. 
Evidently rare in Trang, where we got only two or three 
specimens. In the lowlands of Perak and Selangor it is one 
of the commonest members of the family. 
157. Terpsiphone affinis. 
Terpsiphone affinis (Blyth) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 349; 
Robinson, p. 190. 
The Burmese Paradise Flycatcher is a common resident 
throughout the Peninsula south to Singapore, though its 
numbers are probably increased during the winter months 
by migrants from the north. 
The two other species of this genus found in the Peninsula, 
T. incii Gould and T. princeps (Temm.), are both somewhat 
rare winter visitors. 
158. Philentoma pyrrhopterum. 
Philentoma pyrrhopterum (Temm.) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. 
p. 366 ; Robinson, p. 190. 
Only one specimen was obtained in Trang. The species 
is everywhere rather scarce and not nearly so generally 
distributed as its congener P. velatum.
