Mr. Eyton [1. c), without hesitation, identifies Manilla (?) examples in Lord Derby's collection 

 and his own with Sonnerat's Luzon Teal, adding that it is allied to Q. formosa. Professor 

 Schlegel (Mus. Pays-Bas, Anseres, p. 77) identifies, with doubt, Sonnerat's species with the 

 Australian ^Nettajms j)ukheUus, Gould.

Hah. Luzon {Cuming, Jagor). 



Anas boschas is stated by Dr. Pickering (Cassin, Un. St. Expl. Exped. p. 340) to be raised 

 in immense numbers at the Philippine Islands, but to be undoubtedly of Malay introduction. 

 I do not, therefore, enumerate it as an indigenous species ; but there is no good reason to doubt 

 the probability of its being also a wild winter Duck in the Archipelago.
