16 Addenda and Corrigenda. 



Parish, contains on pp. 180-185 a list of local birds, and should 

 be included. 



Mr. William Evans, to the omission of whose name from my 

 list of correspondents I have already alluded, has written many 

 papers which I gratefully perused. Perhaps the most useful of 

 these has been " Our Present Knowledge of the Fauna of the 

 Forth Area."^ His many contributions to The Annals of 

 Scottish Natural History have also been of much assistance. 



The Catalogue of Dr. Grierson's Museum, Thornhill, 1894, 

 is a publication which I should have included. 



The Catalogue of the Birds contained in the Collection of 

 Sir W. Jardinc, is dated with a query [? July, 1847]. This 

 catalogue is of great rarity. I only know of one copy containing 

 a title page, and this was given me quite recently by Lady 

 Hooker, Sir William's second wife. 1 have learnt that the cata- 

 logue was drawn up by Sir William and his secretary, Miss Kent, 

 just before he died. In fact, the proof sheets were not passed 

 till a month after his death, and it was never rightly published ; 

 though two hundred and fifty copies were delivered at Jardine 

 Hall. These, I believe, were all subsequently destroyed. The 

 date that I have given [? July, 1847] is therefore clearly wrong, 

 and should read 1874. (p. Iv.) 



The references to the various volumes of Jardine's Natur- 

 alist's Library refer to the first edition and to the ornithological 

 section of that work. (p. Ivi.) This observation should, of 

 course, be remembered throughout the book wherever such refer- 

 ences occur. 



I have been wrong in stating that Sir William Jardine's 

 " Note of Rare Birds that have occurred in Dumfriesshire and 

 Galloway " appeared in the Trans. D. and G. Nat. Hist. Sac., 

 of May 5th, 1868. I should have referred to this as 1871, p. 39. 

 (p. Ivi.) 



The correct title of the Kirkcudbright Advertiser is the Kirk- 

 cudbrightshire Advertiser, (p. Ivi.) 



It is interesting to know that Alexander Goodman More (p. 

 Iviii.) was {circa 1861) supplied with a list of birds breeding in 

 Dumfriesshire by Sir William Jardine.
