while it is hardly less attractive to the student of " Wild 

 Man." A visit to Gunong Ijau may be strongly recom- 

 mended to any traveller in this part of the world. From 

 Calcutta, whither he now proceeded with the late William 

 Doherty, visits were made to some of the most interesting 

 places in British India, and amongst other great sights 

 a view of Kinchinjunga from Darjeeling was obtained, 

 and the wonders of Benares, Agra, Delhi, and Jaipur were 

 inspected. Bird-notes were made at all these places. The 

 return home was effected by Bombay, Aden, and the Suez 

 Canal. 



In the third section of his travels Mr. Hartert takes us to 

 the New World, where he visited some of the less-known 

 Caribec Islands and the adjacent mainland. In May 1892, 

 accompanied by his wife, he crossed the Atlantic to St. Thomas 

 and La Guaira, whence an excursion was made to Caracas. 

 Then the three Dutch West-Indian Islands of Curacao, 

 Aruba, and Bonaire were thoroughly explored, and materials 

 Avere accumulated for the excellent memoir on the birds of 

 those islands published in this Journal (Ibis, 1893, p. 289). 

 A revised synopsis of the ornithology of the three islands is 

 now given, 56 species being enumerated; while Coturniculus 

 savannaruui caribceus and Xanthornus icterus ridgwayi are 

 introduced as new subspecies. 



The fourth and last section of Mr. Hartert's " Naturalist's 

 Journal " gives us an account of his spring-visit to Morocco 

 and Teneriffe in 1901. After touching at Gibraltar and 

 Casablanca, a most interesting excursion into the interior 

 was made from Mazagan, and several scarce birds were met 

 with (e. g., Francolinus bicalcaratus and Comatibis eremita). 

 From Mazagan our traveller crossed the sea to Teneriffe, and, 

 after a short but enjoyable stay there, returned home by 

 M adeira. 



The final chapter of Mr. Ilartcrt's journal is devoted to a 

 review of the birds of Mazagan and Middle Morocco, in 

 which 83 species are treated. Several new "subspecies" 

 arc given — Turdus morula mauritanicus, T. m. cabreree (from 

 Teneriffe), Passer luspaniolensis maltee (from Malta), and
