was caught in a mist net in primary forest. It was aberrant; the two outer tail feathers were white and it had a few white under tail coverts. _=Pycnonotus squamatus borneensis=_ Chasen: Scaly-breasted Bulbul.--_Specimens_, 2: Cocoa Research Station: [Female] 24.0 gm., August 2, 1962, MCT 2708; [Male] testis 4 x 3 mm., 22.2 gm., August 23, 1962, MCT 2802. Both specimens were taken from a feeding tree, _Trema orientalis_, in which they were eating berries. This species of tree was used for shade in the cocoa. _=Pycnonotus cyaniventris paroticalis=_ (Sharpe): Gray-bellied Bulbul.--_Specimens_, 2: Cocoa Research Station: [Female] largest ovum 2 mm., 21.6 gm., August 25, 1962, MCT 2808; [Male] testis 7 x 4 mm., 20.5 gm., September 13, 1962, MCT 2916. On August 23, 1962, I saw four in the cocoa but they took flight into the forest. I later collected two specimens from a shade tree, _Trema orientalis_, in which they were feeding upon the berries. _=Pycnonotus atriceps atriceps=_ (Temminck): Black-headed Bulbul.--_Specimens_, 9: Cocoa Research Station: [Female], April 29, 1963, ADG 85; [Female], April 27, 1963, ADG 72; [Female], April 20, 1963, ADG 90; [Male], April 27, 1963, ADG 69; [Male], April 28, 1963, ADG 79; [Male], April 26, 1963, ADG 61; [Male], April 28, 1963, ADG 81; [Male] juv., April 28, 1963, ADG 82; [Male], May 1, 1963, ADG 97. I did not see this species in my stay at the Cocoa Research Station, and the specimens taken by Garcia constitute the only record. The juvenal plumage in one specimen indicates that the species breeds at Quoin Hill. _=Pycnonotus zeylanicus=_ (Gmelin): Yellow-crowned Bulbul.--It was common at Tuaran. _=Pycnonotus goiavier gourdini=_ Gray 1847: Yellow-vented Bulbul.--_Specimens_, 17: Tenom: [Female], December 31, 1962, MCT 3547; [Male] testis 9 x 6 mm., December 31, 1962, MCT 3548; [Female] oviduct regressing, old brood patch, December 31, 1962, MCT 3549; [Male], December 31, 1962, MCT 3550; [Female] oviduct nearly regressed, January 1, 1963, MCT 3556; [Female], January 1, 1963, MCT 3557; [Male] testis 9 x 7 mm., December 31, 1963, MCT 3558; [Male] testis enlarged, January 1, 1963, MCT 3559; [Female], January 1, 1963, MCT 3560; [Male], January 2, 1963, MCT 3562; [Female], January 2, 1963, MCT 3566; [Male], January 2, 1963, MCT 3567; [Male] testis 9 x 7 mm., January 2, 1963, MCT 3568; [Male], January 2, 1963, MCT
