132. Meyer on new Birds from Celebes. 



[Neue Yogel von Celebes. Von A. B. Meyer. Notes Leyden Mus. xxiii. 

 pp. 185-189 (1903).] 



Dr. A. B. Meyer here shortly describes the novelties in the 

 collection of birds made by the two Sarasins during their 

 second expedition to Celebes. Altogether 74 specimens were 

 obtained, which are referable to 57 species. Of these the 

 following 6 are described as new : — Microstictus intermedins, 

 Meropogon forsteni centralis, Sijjhia hoevelli, Graucalus 

 temmincki tondeanus, Acrucephalus orientalis celebensis, and 

 Ptilopus centralis. 



Dr. Meyer is contemplating the publication of a new 

 general work on the birds of Celebes. 



133. North on the Nests and Eggs of Australian Birds. 



[Nests and Eggs of Birds found breeding in Australia and Tasmania. 

 By A. J. North. Part III. Sydney, 1903.] 



We have received from the Trustees of the Australian 

 Museum the third part of Mr. North's account of the nests and 

 eggs of Australian Birds, the two former instalments of which 

 we have already noticed (see ' Ibis/ 1902, pp. 156, 666). In 

 the present section of this excellent work the breeding-habits 

 of numerous Australian members of the family Muscicapidse 

 are discussed at length, while their nests and eggs are 

 accurately described, and illustrated by figures in the text 

 and by accompanying plates. The work does great credit 

 both to the author (one of the new Colonial Members of 

 the B. O. U.) and to the artist, Mr. Neville Cayley, who is 

 responsible for the illustrations.
