The number of species exhibited at the present and former Meet- 

 ings, which were considered to have been hitherto undescribed, 

 amounted to sixty. To these were added the following species, which, 

 although previously described, had either remained unfigured, or had 

 not been figured vvith sufficient accuracy for the present state of 

 science, or which had been figured elsewhere during the progress of 

 the work ; viz. Falco Chicquera, Daud. ; Otus Bengalensis, Franklin 

 ('Proceedings,' No. X, p. 115.); Muscipeta peregrina, c? & ^ 3 

 Cinclosoma leucolophum ; Pitta brachijura ; Cinclus Paltasii,Temm. ; 

 Pica erytlirorhyucha, Wagl.; Pica vagabunda, Wagl,; Pica Sinensis, 

 Hardvv. & Gray ; Buceros cavatus, Shaw ; Bucco gra7idis, Gmel. ; 

 Picus Mahrattensis, Lath. S &■ ^ ; Vinago militaris, Cuv. (J & p ; 

 Lophnphorns [nipeyanus, Cuv, cJ & P ? Tragupan Satyrus, Cuv. ; 

 Phasianus Pucrasia, Hardw. & Gray, c? & Pj Perdix Chucar, Hardw. 

 & Gray; Parra Sinensis, Gmel,; Vunellus Goensis ; ^nser Indicus. 



The foregoing species completed the series of the Himalayan col- 

 lection which had originally formed the basis of the ' Centurv of 

 Birds.' All of these, Mr. Vigors observed, had been most liberally 

 presented by Mr. Gould to the Society, and were deposited in the 

 Museum as authentic types of the species figured in that work. To 

 these species were added a few others from the same locality, which 

 the liberality of their owners allowed to be exhibited to the Com- 

 mittee, and to be made use of for the benefit of science. Among them 

 were the following species, which had been kindly communicated bv 

 Dr. Scoulcr of the (ilascow University.
