 on the migrations of the Song Thrush, Fieldfare, White 

 Wagtail, Swallow, Starling, Rook, Skylark and Lapwing, 

 and the same author's migration essays contributed to the 

 "Ibis " ; while attention must be called to the two reports 

 on the spring immigrations of summer residents prepared 

 by the Migration Committee of the British Ornithologists' 

 Club. 



We have also to express our indebtedness to Mr. R. J. 

 Ussher, who has very kindly sent us some notes on the 

 changes in the status of some birds in Ireland since the 

 publication of his and Mr. Warren's book. 



In the following list references to the second edition of 

 Mr. Saunders' " Manual " have been abbreviated thus : — 

 " S. page — " ; and in all cases the records in this list should 

 be read in conjunction with Mr. Saunders' work, which we 

 have regarded as the standard one on the subject.
