 wdhrend dei' Reise von Ende November 1866, bis Ende 

 April 1867 , gesaminelt und beobachtet wurden. J. fiirOrn. 

 1870, pp. 33-56. 



210 species are mentioned as having been collected or ob- 

 served by the author, and notes on many of them are added. 

 The Alaudidce seem to have received especial attention ; and there 

 is a full note on the Raven of Algeria. A story is also told of 

 a bird, supposed to be a Marabout {Leptoptilus) , having been 

 brought by an Arab to the travellers when staying at Ajmokra; 

 but, no one being in at the time, it was not secured. We 

 are not aware that any bird of this genus has ever been noticed 

 in North Africa proper. In a subsequent article v. Heuglin 

 criticises the names applied to some of the species mentioned in 

 this article and makes suggestions as to others (see v. Heug- 

 lin).
