Director' s Anmial Report. 



by Rothschild (Avifauna of Laysaii) are very satisfadlory figures of 

 the eggs here described. The nest there shown lacks charadler. 



Wilson's figures (Aves Hawaiienses) of the nests and eggs are 

 both misleading. The nest there figured is too loose and dilapi- 

 dated, while the eggs are paler and freer of freckles than are those 

 in the Museum collecflion.
