material is now at tlie Natural History Museum, South 

 Kensington, whither I have brought the specimens by the 

 direction of Princeton University, the British Museum being 

 the only place where adequate comparisons can be made. A 

 monograph in detail will be the ultimate result of this work, 

 and in the meantime diagnoses of such birds as appear to 

 be undescribed will be communicated to the British Ornitho- 

 logists' Club.
