242 LANIUS ALGERIENSIS. L. AUCHERI. L. MINOR. 



LANIUS ALGERIENSIS, Lesson. 



§ 934. Owe.— Tangier. From M. Favier through Mr. Wil- 

 Hams, 1847. 



§ 935. Three. — Madracen, Algeria, 30 May, 1857. From 

 Messrs. Salvin and Simpson. 



[These three eggs appear to have been from the same nest, which, from a 

 note of Mr. Salviu's, was taken by Mr. Tristram, who saw the bird. One was 

 given to Mr. WoUey by Mr. Simpson (Hudlestou), another by the same to my 

 brother and myself, and we received the third from Mr. Salvin. J 



LANIUS AUCHERI, Bonaparte. 

 [§ 936. i^/ye.— Jericho, 16 April, 1864. From Mr. Tristram. 



The Canon's note is simply : — *' Five eggs and nest." The specific name 

 here applied is cited on his authority (Fauna and Flora of Palestine, p. 58). 

 In his earlier writings the bird appeared as L. excuhitor (Ibis, 1867, p. 364). 

 Whether it is justifiably separable from L. lahtora is a question on which I 

 can oft'er no opinion.]
