larger Hawks in the neiglibourliood of Oporto, as for 

 instance in the pine-woods of Lavados, Sto. Andr^ do Cani- 

 dello, and Mattosinhos. I have seen it circling over the city 

 of Oporto. 



140. Aquila pennata (Gmel.). '^Aguia pequena/' Lis- 

 bon Museum. 



There are specimens of the Booted Eagle in the Lisbon 

 Museum from Evora and Redonho ; the Coimbra Museum 

 also possesses a specimen. 



141. Aquila n^evia. 



Under this name the Coimbra Museum has a specimen of 

 the Spotted Eagle^ but whether it belongs to the larger 

 or lesser form I do not know. 



142. Aquila adalberti, L. Brehm. 



In the grounds of the Crystal Palace, Oporto, there were 

 formerly two specimens of the White-shouldered Eagle, the 

 youngest of which I was informed came from the Serra de 

 Estrella. In the Lisbon Museum there are specimens from 

 Evora and Villa Vigosa, and there are several in various 

 stages of plumage in the Coimbra Museum. 



143. Aquila CHRYSAETUS (Linn.). " Aguia real," Coimbra 

 Museum. 



The Golden Eagle is found in the wildest serras. In 1873 

 a live specimen was sent to my brother Alfred from the 

 Serra do Marao, and he presented it to the Zoological Society 

 of London. I have seen specimens from the Serra do Gerez, 

 Serra d-'Estrella, Cintra, and Mafra^ and most of the numerous 

 Eagles in the Serra do Gerez are probably of this species. 



144. CiRCAETus GALLicus (Gmel.). '' Guincho da tainha," 

 Coimbra Museum. 



In the Crystal Palace of Oporto a specimen of the Short- 

 toed Eagle was exhibited which had been obtained near Ponte 

 do Lima ; the Coimbra Museum possesses specimens from 

 the Quinta da Foja and the Alemtejo ; and I have a pair 

 obtained at Abrantes, Ribatejo.
