84. Leverkuhn on the Breeding of the Crotophagidse. 



[Ueber das Brutgescliiift der Crotopliagiden. Von Paul Leverkiilui. 

 J. f. 0. 1894, p. 44.] 



Dr. Leverkiihu gives a German translation of Reinhardt^s 

 essay ou the breeding-habits of the Anis (published in Danish 

 in 1860), which will be useful to those ornithologists who 

 do not read Danish. Dr. Leverkiihn adds some supple- 

 mentary remarks, from which we learn that a pair of 

 the closely allied form Guira piririgita made a nest in the 

 Zoological Garden of Copenhagen in 1893. Three or four 

 of the very curious eggs of this species were laid, and one 

 young bird was hatched and lived fourteen days. 



8.5. Meyer and Wiglesworth on new Birds from Celebes and 

 its tieiffhbourhood. 



[Besclireibung eiuiger neuen Vogel der Cel6bes-Region. Von A. B. 

 Meyer und L. W. Wiglesworth. J. f. O. 1894, p. 113.] 



Tanygtiathus muelleri sangirensis is a new subspecies from 

 Sanghir ; Zosterops sarasinornm, sp. nov., and Nycticorax 

 minahasscB, sp. nov., are from Celebes. The occurrence of 

 Fuffinus chlororhynchus on the coast of Celebes is chronicled. 



86. Oustalet on a new Cassowary. 



[Description d'une nouvelle Espece de Caaoar de File Jobi. Par M. 

 E. Oustalet. C. R. Soc. Philom. Paris, no. 9, F^vrier 1893.] 



M. Oustalet describes Casuarius laglaizei based on a spe- 

 cimen obtained by jVI. Laglaize on the island of Jobi in 

 the Bay of Geelvink. It is curious that this species, as well 

 as C. occipitalis, Salvad., should occur in the same little 

 island, and we may be allowed to question its distinctness. 



87. Oustalet on new Birds from Congoland. 



[Notice sur quelques Especes uouvelles d'Oiseaux recueilles par M. J. 

 Dybowski dans le cours de son expedition a travers la region de 

 rOubangui. Par E. Oustalet. Le Naturaliste, 1892, pp. 218, 231.]
