 THREE NEW BRITISH BIRDS. 



The Collared Flycatcher, Muscicapa coUaris Bechst., 



IN Sussex. 

 On May 12th, 1911, a male Collared Flycatcher 

 (31. collaris) was shot in Udimore Lane, near Winchelsea, 

 and another male at the same place next day. May 1 3th, 

 1911, both in good plumage. This Flycatcher was 

 included by Gould in the British list, but I believe these 

 are the first specimens with authentic data. 



J. B. Nichols. 



ADULT MALE COLLARED FLYCATCEER, SHOT NEAR WINCHELSEA, 



SUSSEX, MAY 12th, 1911. 



By the kindness of Mr. Nichols we are able to give a 

 photograph of one of the specimens to which he refers. 

 It should be remarked that Gould's record was most 

 unsatisfactory, being founded on his recollection of a speci- 

 men in a taxidermist's shop, and has never been accepted.
