the most common in the lower story of the primary forest. On July 23, 1962, many males were performing courtship displays at Quoin Hill. _=Rhipidura javanica longicauda=_ Wallace: Pied Fan-tailed Flycatcher.--_Specimens_, 3: Tawau: sex?, September 2, 1962, MCT 2863. Telipok: [Female], February 9, 1963, TM 28. Tuaran: sex?, December 14, 1963, SCFC 19. On Karindingen Island this was the only passerine bird seen. It was confined to the lowlands and never was seen in localities more than a few feet above sea level. _=Culicicapa ceylonensis ceylonensis=_ (Swainson): Gray-headed Flycatcher.--_Specimens_, 6: Cocoa Research Station: [Male], 8.0 gm., August 4, 1962, MCT 2726; sex?, August 20, 1962, 8.6 gm., MCT 2784. 12 mi. N Kalabakan: [Female]?, October 12, 1962, MCT 3018; [Male], October 13, 1962, MCT 3024; [Male] testis 4 x 4 mm., October 28, 1962, MCT 3179. 5.5 mi. SW Tenom: [Male], December 20, 1962, MCT 3483. This bird of the primary forest and primary-secondary forest ecotone was common at all three principal collecting stations. _=Muscicapa sibirica=_ Gmelin: Sooty Flycatcher.--_Specimens_, 2: Cocoa Research Station: [Male], 10.0 gm., August 25, 1962, MCT 2811; [Male], July 8, 1963, ADG 174. Several small "brown" flycatchers which could not be assigned to species were observed at Quoin Hill and Kalabakan. The specimen taken by Garcia is of interest as it was taken on a date extremely early for a migrant. Garcia's specimen (not the other) also presented problems of identification and its assignment to this species is tentative. _=Muscicapa latirostris latirostris=_ Raffles: Brown Flycatcher.--_Specimen_, 1: Cocoa Research Station: [Female], September 26, 1962, MCT 2965. _=Muscicapa cyanomelana cyanomelana=_ Temminck: Blue and White Flycatcher.--_Specimen_, 1: Cocoa Research Station: [Male], November 27, 1962, MCT 3335. The specimen, netted in the cocoa, apparently provides the only record from the east coast of Borneo (see Smythies, 1957:742). _=Muscicapa concreta everetti=_ (Sharpe): White-tailed Blue Flycatcher.--_Specimens_, 6: 12 mi. N Kalabakan: [Male], October 15, 1962, MCT 3045; [Male], November 1, 1962, MCT 3199; [Female], November 8, 1962, MCT 3229; [Male], November 8, 1962, MCT 3230. 5.5 mi. SW Tenom: [Male], December 19, 1962, MCT 3465; [Female], December 23, 1962, MCT 3516. This species seems to be confi
