INTRODUCTION

The major part of this report is an account of birds collected by the

expedition of the Bernice P. Bishop Museum of Honolulu, Hawaii, to North

Borneo, from June 24, 1962, through January 14, 1963. Most of the time

spent in the then British Colony was devoted to collecting in lowland

habitats. The chief collecting localities were in the vicinity of Quoin

Hill on the Semporna Peninsula, and near Kalabakan. Approximately two

weeks were spent in surveying the Tenom area. Additional work was done

by the North Borneo Department of Agriculture after my departure, mainly

by Antonio D. Garcia.
