362 Recently published Ornithological Works. 



contains a report by the President, Baron Snouckaert van 

 ISchauburg, on the ornithological occurrences in Holland 

 from October 1914 to September 1915. Perhaps the most 

 interesting of these is the taking of a British Robin ringed 

 in Berkshire on May 13, 1912, in South Holland in 

 November 1914 ; this subspecies does not appear to have 

 been previously recorded outside the British Isles, In 

 another article Baron Snouckaert gives us some additions 

 and corrections to his ' Avifauna Neerlandica/ published 

 in 1908. 



The nesting habits and eggs of the forms of Marsh- and 

 Wijlow-Tits occurring in Holland and north-west Germany 

 are discussed by Mr. H. C. Siebers. He terms Parus 

 palustris longirostris the Matkop, and Parus atricapillns 

 rhenanus the Glasskop. His remarks are illustrated with 

 two photographs and a plan of the nest of the Willow-Tit 

 bored in the trunk of a tree. 



Other papers in the Yearbook are by Mr. G. J. van Oordt 

 containing field-notes on birds observed in the higher moun- 

 tain ranges of Switzerland, and by Mr. P. A. Hens on the 

 birds of Valkenburg in the Dutch Province of South 

 Limburg.

The Zoological Record has hitherto formed part of the 

 International Catalogue of Scientific Literature issued each 

 year by the Royal Society jointly with the Zoological 

 Society. Early in 1915 the Royal Society decided to 

 suspend for the present the issue of any further volumes 

 of the International Catalogue. The Zoological Society, 

 however, realizing what difiiculties Avould beset the worker 

 in zoology if the Record were suspended or delayed, deter- 

 mined to continue this invaluable publication on their own 

 responsibility, and the volume for the year 1914 is now 

 complete.
