Resembling E. palla ; but differing from it in the form of the 



wings, the position, colour, and number of the submarginal spots, 



the absence of the internal discoidal streaks above, &c. It is allied 



to E. goudotii, the form of the wings being nearly identical.

8. On a New Species of the Genus Accipiter from New Gra- 

 nada. By P. L. Sclater, M.A., Ph.D., F.R.S., Secre- 

 tary to the Society. 



Mr. J. H. Gurney has kindly placed in my hands for examination 

 a skin of a small species of Accipiter from New Granada which is 

 unknown to him. During a recent visit to Paris I have taken the 

 opportunity of comparing this specimen with the fine series of Rapa- 

 cious Birds belonging to the Muse'e d'Histoire Naturelle in the Jardin 

 des Plantes, in doing which I had the advantage of the assistance of 

 my friend M. Jules Verreaux, Aide-Naturaliste to that establishment.
