This bird has the colouring of the female, except that the chin and throat are washed with red. Wing 5 centims., culm en 1*5 centims., tarsus 1*2 centims. Iris reddish ; bill brown, except the basal half of lower mandible, which is yellow ; feet and tarsus coral-red! Salvadori gives the colour of the feet as fuscous : in the Cat. Birds, vol. ix. it is stated to be dark brown. I should place little reliance on the label had it not been written by myself ; it is borne out by the colour of the legs in the dried skin being a faded pinkish yellow. It is possible that the present example may be the immature bird of a new species. Banguey is separated from the N. point of Borneo by a shallow channel some eight miles in width.

This species was very abundant on Libarran, an island lying two or three miles off the coast in Lubuk Bay ; but during a two months' visit to the north of Borneo, I do not recollect ever having seen it elsewhere. |
