These bulbuls regularly feed on berries of _Trema orientalis_. I
saw these bulbuls darting out after insects from branches, much as
flycatchers would do, and have noticed a tendency toward
flycatching in other bulbuls, but not so commonly as in this
species. In using the name _Hypsipetes_ instead of _Microscelis_ I
follow Rand and Rabor (1959:102).

Cocoa Research Station: [Male] testis 8 x 5 mm., 41.0 gm., August 20,

I did not find this species common at any collecting locality.
Smythies (1957:707) considered it a lowland species, but its
occasional occurrence in the highlands is indicated by the specimen
from Tenom.

Deignan (_in_ Peters, 1960:291) regards _Hypsipetes virescens_ and
_Hypsipetes malaccensis_ as specifically distinct.

Bulbul.--_Specimens_, 5: Cocoa Research Station: [Male] testis 5 x 3
mm., August 27, 1962, MCT 2818; [Male] testis 5 x 4 mm., September 25,

This species was occasionally observed in the cocoa, where it fed
on berries of _Trema orientalis_. The size of the testes in males
taken in August suggests that the species had been breeding
earlier.

This was a common and conspicuous bird in the moss forest. Males
called and sang there. The call note sounds like the mew
