BIRDS OF THE ANAMBA ISLANDS. 
The total number of birds, species and subspecies, at present 
known from the Anamba Islands is 56, of which Doctor Abbott re- 
ported 45 and Mr. C. B. Kloss the remaining 11.1. This is, of course, 
considering the area involved, not a large number, and doubtless will 
be greatly increased by future explorations. The Anamba group, 
however, seems not to be so rich in bird life as are the Natuna Islands, 
which lie much nearer Borneo. The complexion of its bird fauna 
may be seen from the subjoined
