 (Sypheotides auritra) across the harbour near Pen towards the end of last 

 month. 



Mr. W. S. Millard showed a specimen of the Black-capped Kingfisher

 species, which is a Malay form, has very rarely been recorded as occurring in

 specimens in the Society's rooms. 



Lieutenant F. N. Wilson, E. I. M„ drew attention to the live specimen of 

 the Malay Tiger Bittern (Goisaleius melanolophus), which he had presented to 

 the Society, and stated that this rare bird flew on board the R. I. M. S. 

 Canning when she was near Cochin on the Malabar Coast.
