-f Gallinago gallinula, Linn. 



Has not yet been recorded from China. It was a male, 

 sliot on 16th January this year. 



Pelecanus, sp. inc. 



E-ickett gave a specimen of this Pelican to the British 

 Museum last year, but it had not been named when he left 

 England. Since then we have obtained two more, and would 

 like to know the species. 



[Dr. Sharpe has not yet had an opportunity of examining 

 this specimen, which will be noticed in his forthcoming 

 volume of the Catalogue. — W. R. O. G.] 



■ Machetes pugnax (Linn.). 



This species has not been previously recorded from 

 China. Rickett shot a specimen in 1895, and subsequently 

 Mr. de La Touche obtained another example from this place. 



-f- Ciconia nigra (Linn.). 



In ' The Ibis,' 1894, p. 224, Rickett suggested the pos- 

 sibility of the specimen he obtained having been brought 

 down from Shanghai. Last October, however, a friend of ours 

 flushed four Black Storks from a creek near the racecourse 

 and shot one.
