OO ON THE OCCURRENCE OF THE SANDERLING IN BORNEO. 



of the writer of any instance of the Sanderling having been 

 observed within the tropics to the eastward of Java cannot explain 

 away the fact that it has occurred on the Marshall Islands 

 (Finsch, Ibis, 1880, p. 331). Finally, in justice to Temminck, it 

 ought to be mentioned that in the list of the Waders in the Leyden 

 Museum published in 1864, besides an example obtained by KuIjI 

 on Java about 1826, there are also two other examples from that 

 island dated 1862 (Schlegel, Mus. Pays-Bas, Scolopaces, p. .57). 

 London, 12th July, 1892.
