WARBLERS. 105 
Obs. In all probability this species will be found to 
be an annual summer migrant to Great Britain; but 
at present it can only be classed amongst the rarer 
visitants. 
AQUATIC WARBLER. Salicaria aquatica (Gmelin). 
Hab. Southern Europe and North Africa. 
One, Hove, near Brighton, 19th Oct. 1853: A. Newton, 
P24... 1866, p. 210. 
One, Loughborough, Leicestershire, summer 1864: Harting, 
Ibis, 1867, p. 468; Zoologist, 1867, p. 946. 
One near Dover; in Dover Museum: Gurney, Zoologist, 
1871, p. 2521. 
Obs. Mr. J. H. Gumey, jun., has pointed out 
(Trans. Norfolk and Norwich Nat. Soc. 1871-72) that 
the figure of the Sedge Warbler given in Hunt's 
‘British Ornithology’ (Norwich, 1815) was undoubt- 
edly taken from a specimen of S. aquatica, and most 
probably, therefore, from one killed in Norfolk. 
RUFOUS WARBLER*. <Aédon galactodes (Temminck). 
Hab. North Africa and Southern Europe in summer. 
One, Plumpton Bosthill, near Brighton, 16th Sept. 1854: 
Borrer, Zoologist, 1854, p. 4511. 
One, Start Point, Devonshire, Sept. 1859: Llewellyn, Ann. 
& Mag. Nat. Hist. (1859), iv. p. 399; Ibis, 1860, p. 103. 
Obs. It is possible that this may be the ‘“ Red- 
* Krroneously called ‘ Rufous Sedge Warbler.” It is never 
found in the neighbourhood of sedge, but on the driest ground 
amidst serub and cactus.
