204 Zoology. 



PI. 52. Is apparently Larus vegse, Stejn, ; Saunders, Cat. B., 

 XXV., p. 270. 

 " Kamtschatka. W. W. Ellis ad viv., etc., 1779." 

 PI. 53. Is Anous stolidus (Gm.) ; Saunders, Cat. B., xxv., p. 136. 



"■ Palmerston Island." 

 PI. 54. Is apparently Sterna vittata, Gm. ; Saunders, Cat. B., 

 XXV., p. 51. 

 "Island of Desolation. W. W. Ellis ad viv., etc., 1776." 

 Latham's "Wreathed Tern" (Gen. Syn., iii., pt. 2, p. 359 

 1785), on which Gmelin founded his Sterna vittata, was said 

 to be from Sir Joseph Banks' collection. Christmas Island is 

 a misprint for Christmas Har-bour, Kerguelen Land, as has been 

 pointed out by Mr. Howard Saunders (I.e.). 

 PI. 55. Sterna serrata, Forst. 



= Sterna full ginosa, Gm. ; Saunders, Cat. B., xxv., p. 106. 

 " Turtle Island. W. W. Ellis ad viv., etc., 1778." 

 PI. 56. White Tern, Lath., Gen. Syn., iii., pt. 2, p. 363 (1785, 

 from a specimen in the Leverian Museum). 

 Is Gygis Candida (Gm.) ; Saunders, Cat. B., xxv., p. 149. 

 "Turtle Island. W. W. Ellis ad viv., etc., 1778." 

 PI. 57. Sterna frontalis, Gray ; Saunders, Cat. B., xxv., p. 97. 

 " At Sea between New Zealand and Modieu. W. W. 

 Ellis ad viv., etc., 1777." 

 The name of Sterna striata of Gmelin is founded on the 

 ^'Striated Tern," Lath., Gen. Syn., iii., p. 358, pi. 98. The bird 

 is described from Sir Joseph Banks' Drawings, and Latham's 

 figure is certainly adapted from Ellis' Drawing. S. striata 

 appears to supersede S. frontalis as a name for the species. 



PI. 58. Is Demiegretta sacra (Gm.) (white phase) ; Sharpe, 

 Cat. B., xxvi., p. 137. 

 " Friendly Isles." 

 The Sacred Heron of Latham (Gen. Syn., iii., pt. 1, p. 92, 

 1785), was described from a specimen in the collection of 

 Sir Joseph Banks, from Otaheite. 



PI. 59. Is Chionarchus minor (Hartl.) ; Sharpe, Cat. B., xxiv., 

 p. 712. 

 " Kerguelens Land. W. Ellis ad viv., etc., 1776." 

 PI. 60. Is probably Limonites minutilla (Vieill.) ; Sharpe, 

 Cat. B., xxiv., p. 548. 

 "King George's Sound. W. Ellis ad vivum, etc., 1778." 

 PI. 61. Is Pelidna americana (Cass.) ; Sharpe, Cat. B., xxiv., 

 p. 608. 

 " King George's Sound. W. W. Ellis ad viv., etc., 1778."
