The Canon’s notes on the Red-legged Partridge of Palestine, and especially 
its eggs, are in ‘ The Ibis’ for 1868 (pp. 218, 214). He plainly saw its distinct- 
ness from the allied European form, but calling that C. greca, he applied 
the name C. savatilis, a synonym of the last, to the former, which is now 
recognized as identical with the eastern C. chukar. |

Given to me by Mr. Danford as the egg of what was at the time supposed 
to be a new species of 7'etraogallus (7. tauricus, Dresser, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1876, 
p. 675), but subsequently shewn by him (Ibis, 1877, pp. 258, 254) to be identical 
with the long-known Tetrao caspius of 8S. G. Gmelin. Myr. Danford’s account 
of the taking of this nest, which contained six eggs, by himself and party is 
given in ‘The Ibis’ for 1878 (pp. 80, 31). |
