172 Records of IVirds Bred in Capik'ify. 



The first list contains the records which 1 consider sufficient 

 to establish entirely the event recorded; the second the more 

 doubtful or incomplete records, which require amplihcation, 

 veritication or further details. From a practical point of view 

 ihe birds in List i may be considered to have certainly been bred; 

 those in List 2, probably or in some cases possibly. 



For the general plan and the original references, etc.. sec 

 Bird Notes, 1918. 57 ct seq. 



The numbers before the names in list i are those used in 

 the original list. A few new records (unnumbered) and refer- 

 ences have been added, though these are by no means complete 

 or include all the recent successes. 



When an entry is followed by the word " abroad " only, 

 ■'" means that I know no British record. 



In list 2 I give shortly whatever reference appeared 

 originally; in list i only new references are given, the absence 

 of any addition to the name indicating that the breeding of the 

 species concerned is established by the references given in the 

 original list. 



Latin names are not used for the well-known species. 



I hope that those who can will assist with corrections and 

 additions.

P.S. — The following are extracts from a letter from Mr. 

 Page, giving details and additions which I unfortunately received 

 too late to incorporate in the Lists. I therefore give them 

 here with references to this page under the different entries. 



I hope others will follow this good example and supply 

 further details and especially references, that is. where recorded, 

 date, breeder's name, etc., so that the present double and 

 incomplete list may be converted into a complete and single 

 one, containing" sufficient dated references to published 

 records. — E.H.

 (spinoides) x CANARY. Dr. Scott bred this cross in 1915, and I have some 

 ol' the living hybrids in my aviary at the present time." W.T.P.

 many other places).
