Besides the above, there is a paper on the birds of the 

 Theiss and Lower Danube, by Zelebor, which may be con- 

 sulted, though it has not much bearing on Transylvania, 

 along with Herr A. v. Pelzeln's remarks upon the same in 

 ' Journal fiir Ornithologie,' 1864 {cf. Ibis, 1865, pp. 225, 226) . 



The Hungarian names (printed in italics) which we give 

 are extracted from Bieltz and from various other sources. 

 We have endeavoured to translate these, except where they 

 are equivalent to the English, or are proper names, having 

 no particular interpretation. As in other countries, the names 

 undergo many variations in different parts of Hungary. 



All the species observed by us during our present trip, or 

 ])y Danford on his previous visit in the autumn of 1872, are 

 indicated by an asterisk in the following list.

 coming possessed of eggs, of which latter I might have be- 

 come the happy owner of no less than seven specimens. As
