I add for comparison the following measurements of adult, 
or nearly adult, specimens of Falco barbarus, the sex of which 
has been recorded by the collectors. 
These measurements have been taken by myself from the

examples of #’. barbarus- are much to be desired, for the sake 
of supplying a larger series for comparison than exists at 
present.

In conclusion, I may mention two adult Falcons from Nepal, 
which were presented by Mr. Hodgson to the British Museum, 
and which notwithstanding the very eastern locality where 
they were obtained, I can only refer to Fulco punicus. The 
smaller of these specimens, which I believe to be a male, is
