 colour ; cere dirty greenish ; legs and feet pale greenish yel-

[This Harrier is probably only a migratory visitant, as all 

 my six specimens have been shot during the N.E. monsoon. 

 The present individuals were shot as they were flying over 

 marshy ground at the mouth of the Bintulu river. — A. E.]

[A very rare bird in Borneo, according to my experience. 

 I have only seen it twice — once about 40 miles up the main 

 Bintulu river, and again far inland on the Jilalong. — A. E.] 



This Eagle is included in Count Salvadori's w^ork provisi- 

 onally with a query. He seems to have argued from its oc- 

 currence in all the neighbouring islands that it must therefore 

 be found in Borneo. This supposition is now confirmed by 

 Mr. Everett, to whom belongs the credit of adding the species 

 to the Bornean list.
