These eight eggs of the Shore-Lark from two nests — one some'.vh.it 

 sat upon, the other nearly fresh — were found on the mountains by 

 Olli Naimakka in the night and morning of Jime 9th to 10th on 

 his way over from Norway. He walked the birds up and said they 

 were " Kello-lintu" [Bell-bird] — the same bird as that of which I 

 had shewn him a skin in Kaaressuando. They were in the somewhat 

 level treeless ground with knolls on both sides. Bits of the nests he 

 brought with him had willow-down intermi.\ed, but it is possible 

 they might have come from another nest he had [a Wagtail's] .

[These eleven eggs, from three nests as above, were carefully inscribed by 

 Mr. Wolley, but never entered by him in his book, though they are men- 

 tioned in the note printed under the next section. From the dates and 

 localities written on the eggs it is clear that they must have been taken by 

 him when walking along the coast from Vadsci to Vardo in East Finmark. 

 Lille Ekkerij is the name of an island and Store Ekkerii that of a peninsula 

 in the Varanger Fjord, but both are marked as islands in the Norwegian 



not reach Mr. Hewitson in time to be included in its regular place and therefore 

 was printed on a leaf to be inserted by the binder (Eggs of Br. B. ed. .3, i. 

 p. 178*), while, as the references below shew, the eggs sent at the same time were 

 figured on a supplementary plate (xlv.*). — Ed.]
