NOTES ON BIRDS FROM APO ISLAND. 
By Ricuarp C. McGrecor. 
Mr. Worcester, on November 26, 1905, accompanied by two Filipino 
collectors from the Bureau of Science, made a landing on Apo, a small 
coral island 24 miles west from Sablayan, the point nearest thereto on 
the Mindoro coast. 
Specimens of five species of birds were secured; with the exception of 
Endynamis mindanensis these are all migratory species and none of them 
gives us any clue to the zoological relationship of Apo. 
Endynamis mindanensis (Linn.). 
A male of the Philippine koel. 
Turdus obscurus Gmel. 
An adult male of this thrush. Mr. Worcester writes to me that “there 
was a great flock of the thrushes, of which we secured a single good 
specimen on Apo Island. They were evidently migrating and had 
stopped in this place to rest.” 
Acanthopneuste borealis (Blas.). 
One specimen of the northern willow warbler. 
Horornis canturiens (Swinh.). 
A male specimen of this grass warbler. 
Anthus maculatus Hodgs. 
A male of the spotted pipit. 
SS Tree amare e
