SUMMARY:
Notes record obtaining a male Fire-capped Tit (Cephalopyrus flammiceps saturatus), apparently the first for Bhutan, with prior occurrence noted in the lower Nyam Jang Chu Valley in 1936 and a Yunnan specimen from the Tengyueh district described by Rothschild as C. f. olivacea. The writer describes crossing into the Nyam Jang Chu Valley and the Tibet–Bhutan boundary near Jangphu, and remarks on the Rufous Woodpecker’s penetration up the Manas Valley.

L. p 35. We soon crossed the spur that separates us from the Nyam Jang Chu Valley.
The latter is massive & we could see the snows above Tawang near the Bum La where
we crossed in 1934. The boundary between Tibet & Bhutan was crossed just below our camp
at Jangphu? It was just a dry watercourse. It is strange that such insignificant
geographical landmarks should be used for boundaries when others such as the Nyam Chang
Chu itself, for example, are available at a mile or so distance.
Rufous woodpecker Micropternus brachyurus phaeoceps (Ibis 364)
in the Nyam Jang Chu Valley shows an interesting penetration up the main
Manas Valley well into the interior.
