moscas. 



Tolerably common in tlic large and central province of 

 Beira. 



M. ALP.ICOLLIS is also said to be common in the northern 

 provinces of ]\Iinho and Traz-os-Montes, more especially in 

 the wilder parts of the latter ; it is likewise known simply 

 as Papa-moscas.

The seven species enumerated above are all common in 

 their respective haunts, and most of them appear in the

 company with Finches, Larks, and Buntings. 



37. fTuRDUS TORQUATUS (Linn.), 'Ring-Ouzel,' Melro de jyeito

[38. CiNCLUs AQUATicus (Bcchst.), ' Common Dipper.' 

 By no means rare in the northern provinces.] 



39. fORiOLUS GALBULA (Linn.), ' Golden Oriole,' Papafigos. 



Very common in summer, though, strange to say, it had 

 not arrived when I left the country in the middle of ]\Iay ; 

 and yet in the more northern and much colder district of 

 the Riviera in north Italy, it had arrived at that date, when 

 I was wintering there some years back. 



40. fAccENTOR MODULARis (Linn.), ' Hedge Sparrow.' 



By no means common, and, so far as I could discover, 

 does not enjoy the privilege of a Portuguese name.
