Publications of the United States National Museum
The scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series,
Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum
Bulletin.
In these series are published original articles and monographs dealing with the
collections and work of the Museum and setting forth newly acquired facts in the
fields of Anthropology, Biology, Geology, History, and Technology. Copies of each
publication are distributed to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists
and others interested in the different subjects.
The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form,
of shorter papers. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication
date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume.
In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate
publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in
which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in
size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902 papers relating to the
botanical collections of the Museum have been published in the Bulletin series under
the heading Contributions from the United States National Herbarium.

The Provinces of Thailand ix
The Birds of Thailand 3
Index 221
Introduction
The late Count Nils Gyldenstolpe, of Sweden, was the author of the
only previously pubhshed and theoretically complete checkhst of the
birds of Thailand. His "A Nominal List of the Birds at Present
Known to Inhabit Siam" (Ibis, 1920, pp. 446-496, 569-607, 735-780)
gave the names of 732 forms, of which some were only dubiously to be
considered Siamese. The present hst includes the names of 1,173
birds and is complete so far as the avifauna of Thailand is known at
this date (1962).
For information on the Siamese collections in their care and, often,
for the privilege of personal examination of important specimens, I
owe thanks to literally dozens of museums in America, Europe, and
Asia, and to members of their ornithological staffs. Special gratitude
is due Mrs. B. P. HaU, of the British Museum (Natural History),
London, who painstakingly recorded for me the data for the entire
extensive collection of Siamese birds presented the Museum by the late
Su- Walter J. F. WiUiamson, C.M.G.
I should mention also the rich collections of Dr. Bun Song Lekhakun
of Bangkok and of Dr. Robert E. Elbel, USOM/Thailand, who have
sent me copious material during the past ten years, and whose explora-
tions of previously uninvestigated areas have added dozens of birds
to the Siamese hst.
Finally, I must express my heartfelt thanks to Dr. Edward H. Taylor
and Dr. George W. Byers, Editors of the University of Kansas Science
Bulletin, who have graciously permitted me to use their invaluable
plate of the map of Thailand sho\\dng provincial boundaries.

Note. — With increase of population, there has in recent years been
recurrent talk of dividing each of the provinces of Chiang Rai (36)
and Chiang Mai (35) into two. The new province to be carved from
Chiang Rai would probably be named Phayao, while that withdrawn
from Chiang Mai would probably be called Chaiya Prakan.
The hypothetical Province of Phayao would possess an avifauna
inseparable from that of the then restricted Province of Chiang Rai.
The hypothetical Province of Chaiya Prakan, however, which would
correspond with that part of the present-day Chiang Mai that falls
into the watershed of the Mae Khong, would show an avifauna very
different indeed from that of the then restricted Province of Chiang
Mai, drained by the system of the Chao Phaya.
To stress the differences, I have consistently referred to Chaiya
Prakan as provenience of forms reported from the Mae Khong-
drained northeastern part of what is still officially known as Chiang
Mai.
