628 ON THE OENITHOLOGr OF THE PHILIPPINES, [1878. 



Examples of 6 species previously said to have a Philippine habitat Mr. Everett found at 

 Zamboanga, thus reducing the number of uncertain Philippine species to 29. 



Twenty species authentically recorded from Zamboanga and its vicinity are not contained in 

 Mr. Everett's collection ; so that the now known total of Zamboanga species identified from 

 specimens amounts to 118. 



Mr. Everett writes : — " I enclose a note of the species observed by me here, which I think 

 P.Z.S.1878, were not represented by skins in my collection. I have only included in these lists those birds 

 ^' ' the names of which I am absolutely certain I can give with accuracy." 



Cacatua hcematuropygia. [New to Zamboanga.] 



Haliastur intermedius. [Already recorded.]

•Three of the above species (omitting the Anthus as undeterminable) not having previously 

 been recorded from Zamboanga, when added to the number of species represented by specimens, 

 raise the total number of birds known from this part of Mindanao to 121.
