by M. E, Wagner in 1910. Another faunal list is that of 

 Dr. Millet-Horsin, of birds met with by hiiu near Frejiis on 

 the Riviera coast. 



There are two short papers by M. P. Bede, in one of which 

 he shows that Rhauipkocorys clot-bey, chiefly met with in the 

 Sahara, ranges as far nortli as Mezzouna not far from Sfax 

 in Tunisia ; in the other he discusses tlie Black-eared and 

 Black-throated Wlieatears, wliich he believes must be con- 

 sidered distinct species. We Avould draw his attention ir 

 regard to this point to Major Sladeu's remarks [supra, 

 p. 335). 



M. Bon brings forward evidence of Clamator glandarius 

 occasionally ln*eediug in the south of France, where it 

 has been said to occur only as a rare visitor; and M. A. 

 Bouvier records the capture, more than a hundred years 

 ago, of Trichodroma muraria in a Parisian garden, some 

 considerable distance to the north of its usual range. 

 M. A. Blanchet adds Terekia cinerea and Prunella collaris 

 to the fauna of Tunisia for the first time. 



Among general articles Dr. F. Cattelin contests the usual 

 view that Swallows and other migrants always return to 

 the same nesting-place each spring, and Prof. R. Dubois 

 discusses t!ie subject of colour-blindness and colour-vision 

 among birds. Finally, we notice an article by Capt. J. N. 

 Kennedy on the birds of the valley of the Ancre on some- 

 what similar lines to that which he recently contributed to 

 ' The Ibis.^ 



Rivlsta Ital. di Ornitologia. 



[Eivista Italiana di Ornitologia. Auno iv. — 1918.] 



We rejoice to find that our Italian friends have found it 

 possible to recommence the publication of their ornitho- 

 logical journal, which has been suspended since early in the 

 war-time. It is now edited by Count Arrigoni degli Oddi 

 with the assistance of F. Cavassa, Prince F. Chigi, 

 A. Ghigi, and Count Salvadori. 



The present number commences with a memoir and biblio- 

 graphy, accompanied by a photograph, of Prof. Martorelli,
