THE SOCIETY’S MEDAL.

Many-coloured Parrakeet, Psephotus multicolor; and an account of the cir¬

cumstance is now published, for the information of our Members, as

required by the Rules governing such cases, which will be found on pp. 36

this species, it is believed for the first time in the United Kingdom. If any

previous instance should be known to any of our members or readers, it is

requested that they will be so good as to communicate at once with the

Honorary .Secretary.
