bird, never having seen it before. It was’shot at Killingsuvanda.”’ 
Accordingly, in the Catalogue of his Eggs sold by Mr. Stevens in 
1856, he stated, under the head of “ d4nas albifrons,” that “ this 
interesting bird is the proper Fjell-gas of the Swedes, which name 
has, however, been applied to the Bernicle in their works on Natural 
History. The Lapland specimens seem to be of the small-sized race, 
which has been named Anser minutus by Naumann.” I must here 
take exception to part ‘of Mr. Wolley’s statement, some Swedish 
writers being quite aware that the “ Fyell-Gas ” was not Anser leu- 
copsis, as, for instance, Professor Zetterstedt, in the account of his 
travels in Lapland * (vol. ii. p. 161). 
In the Catalogue of his Eggs sold in the following year (1857), 
Mr. Wolley further identified the only White-fronted Geese which 
breed in Lapland,” with the Anser finmarchicus of Bishop Gunner, 
described in one of the notes (pp. 264-5) of Professor Leem’s great 
work +, “‘ as distinct from the larger White-fronted Goose.” 
I can only say that I entirely coincide with the views thus ex- 
pressed by Mr. Wolley, while I also identify the “ Killio-hanhit” or 
“ Fjell Gas,” with the Anas erythropus of Linnzeus ; and I here 
subjoin a concise summary of the principal synonyms of this bird.

The present list contains an enumeration of the Birds lately sent 
to this country by that indefatigable collector Mr. Wallace, from 
Batchian or Bakian Island, including a few from Kaisa or Kiou 
Island ; to these are added those that he had forwarded on a pre- 
vious occasion from Amboyna and Ternate ; thus embracing a hun- 
dred species found on four of the Molucca Islands. I am therefore 
induced to refer to the names of those species that have been recorded
