144 ANNALS OF SCOTTISH NATURAL HISTORY 



SLAVONIAN GREBE (P. anritus). Mr. Evans saw what he says 

 " was most likely a Slavonian Grebe " near Kilmichael, and I saw a 

 stuffed specimen in the possession of Mr. Bodin, Port Bannatyne. 



LITTLE GREBE (P. fluviatilis). Nests on most of the lochs and 

 ponds, where its peculiar note often betrays its presence. 



LEACH'S FORK-TAILED PETREL (Oceanodroma leucorrhoa). On 

 nth November 1899, after a westerly gale, a bird was found dead 

 in the garden of Mr. James M'Crone, Rothesay. It was sent for 

 preservation to M'Culloch and Son's, where I examined it.
