154. Glaucion clangula. GoMen-Eye. 

 Included by v. Jordaus on Barcelo's authority. 



155. Mergus merganser. Goosander. 



156. Mergus serrator. Red-breasted Merganser. 

 During the wet autumn and winter of 1020-21 several 



small parties of botli these species frequented the lagoons 

 and inundation, near Puerto Alcudia, as well :is the mouths 

 of the streams running into Alcudia Bay. 



Von Jordans quotes Barcelo as the authority for the occur- 

 rence of both these species, as well as for — 



157. Mergellus albellus. Smew. 



158. Phcenicopterus antiquorum. Flamingo. 

 Whatever may have been the case in former years, the 



Flamingo certainly does not now breed in Majorca; possibly 

 it may rarely occur on migration. I know of no localities 

 where it would be likely to remain for any time. 

 Included in v. Jordans' list. 



159. Ardea cinerea. Heron. 



During the winter quantities of Herons inhabit the 

 Albufera and lagoons, and stand in rows along the dykes 

 and ditches, and also freciuent the sand-banks in Alcudia 

 Bay. They roost on the eliU's of the C-abo tlel Pinar, with 

 the Cormorants, and some nest. A few pairs evidently nest 

 also in the reed-beds of the Albufera, but the recesses of this 

 great swamp are quite inaccessible in summer, being covered 

 with dense thickets of reeds growing in water more or less 

 deep. Some | ass over the district on spring migration. 



Observed by v. Jordans. 



160. Ardea purpurea. Purple Heron. 



Arrives in April in small numbers in the Albufera, where 

 it breeds ; but only visits the A.lbuferete on passage, as this 

 marsh is now so curtailed in size. 



Observed by v. Jordans. 



161. Egretta alba. Great White Heron. 



Von Jorchins remarks on Barcelo's note on this species.
