630 NOTES FROM THE SOUTH. 
Moracinita ALBA. White Wagtail. 
On April 20th a few were seen on the banks of the river 
Cettina in the north of Dalmatia. 
BupYTES MELANOCEPHALUS. Black-headed Wagtail. 
Seen in great numbers on April 22nd and 23rd on the 
fringes of the marshes of the Lago di Vrana and the lagoons 
at Nona in the north of Dalmatia. 
Parus mason. Great Tit. 
Parus cHruueus. Blue Tit. 
I frequently observed solitary individuals of both species at 
Lacroma in the end of March. 
Upura Epops. Hoopoe. 
The first Hoopoe which I saw at Lacroma, on March 14th, 
seemed to be very tired with a long journey and could hardly 
fly. Upto March 28th I observed no more, but after that 
date they were daily to be seen in larger or smaller numbers, 
and were most abundant on April 16th and 17th. On the 
mainland I did not come across a single individual. 
SITTA NEUMAYERI. Syrian Nuthatch. 
After the beginning of April I often observed a few pairs 
of this remarkable Nuthatch high up in the almost barren 
mountains on the road between Ragusa and Trebinje. They 
clambered about the rocks, and sometimes sat resting on the 
tops of the stones, uttering a low song-like twittering. 
TiIcHODROMA MURARIA. Wall-Creeper. 
On March 17th I observed one creeping about the ram- 
parts of Ragusa. It was the only bird of this species that 
I saw.
