Discussion: Revised by Pocock (1933 a) and Van Bemmel (1952). Gray (1832) originally described the type from the " Moluccas "; later Temminck (1841) referred to the same specimen as being from " Java ". Gray (1843), then corrected the presumed geographic error and listed the same type as from " Malacca ". Jentink (1887) listed the same type from "Buitenzorg". However, Van Bemmel (1952) stated that the collector, Reinwardt, was in the eastern part of the Indo-Australian Archipelago in 1821 and the type did not match other specimens from Java. Synonyms allocated according to Pocock (1933 a) except that Pocock placed leucotis, millsi and macra in a separate species (= leucotis). Corbet and Hill (1992) proposed three subspecies: Mainland north of the Isthmus of Kra ( leucotis); Malaya, Sumatra, and Borneo ( trivirgata); and Java (trilineata).
