ii. EREMOPHILA ALPESTRIS, (Forst.) Boie. 

 (SHORE LARK.) 



I procured a single specimen from Mr. William Perham, 

 which he had killed on Byron Island. It was a fully fledged 

 young bird, still retaining the spotted back. No others were 

 observed during our stay on the islands. 



Breeds. 



12. MINOTILTA VARIA, (L.) V. 

 (BLACK-AND-WHITE CREEPER.) 



My first Creeper was taken on July 27, and I observed 

 them afterwards occasionally. It cannot be considered an 

 abundant species. 



Probably breeds. 



13. DENDRCECA ESTIVA, (Gm.) Bd. 

 (SUMMER WARBLER.) 



Common during the month of July; hardly a day passed 

 without our seeing one or more of them ; but after August 

 1 5 they became quite scarce. 



Breeds.
