A LIST OF THE BIRDS OF THE MUDGEE DISTRICT. 



Of the Passeres, 19 belong to the tribe Meliphagidae ; while 

 17 out of the 23 Scansores belong to Psittacidse. 



A comparison of the Mudgee birds with those given as Cumber- 

 land birds in Mr. A. J. North's list (P.L.S.N.S.W. Vol. III., 2nd 

 Ser., p. 1773), and with the birds of New South Wales and Aus- 

 tralia, as given in Dr. Ramsay's list (I.e. Yol. II., p. 177) will 

 perhaps be of interest. 



In making out the numbers and percentage of Cumberland birds 

 from Mr. North's list we have included those he considers strays, 

 as we had done so also in the list of Mudgee birds.
