* I am glad, before the completion of this volume, to have bad au oppor- 

 tunity of seeing the young of Dendrocopm borealis, which appears to be rare in 

 collections, and is but little known. Mallierbe in bis Monograpb (i. p. 13o) bas 

 described it, and distinctly states that it bas no red stripe on the side of tbe 

 occiput, but tliat it bas a red spot on tbe vertex; notwithstanding Ibis, be bas 

 allowed bis draugbtsman to represent tbe S juv. (plate xxxi. fig. 5) witb tbe 

 red stripe on tbe side of tbe occiput, together witb the coronal spot.
