ELEONORA'S FALCON. 



[§ 267. 0;?^.— Cyclades, 13 August, 1862. "Kr." From 

 Dr. Kriiper's Collection, through Pastor Theobald, 1863. 



This rare specimen was taken, as above mentioned, by Dr. Ivriiper, and 

 " written on with his own hand," as I am assured by the Pastor. The Doctor 

 states (Journ. fiu- Omith., 1862, pp. 437-440) the groirnds of his belief that 

 Falco eleonorce, Gene (Mem. Accad. Torin. ser. 2, ii. p. 41), and F. dichrous, 

 Erhard (' Naumannia,' 1858, p. 25), are identical. The same Journal will pro- 

 bably in due time contain his notes on the breeding of this bu'd, of which he 

 then (December 1861) only knew that it took place in August. This egg cor- 

 responds in size, though not in colom', with the figure on the plate (tab. 1) 

 illustrating Prof. Gene's paper {op. cit.),'\
