This species is remarkable for its stout bill, which is of a very 
pale grayish colour, tinted with yellow on the upper surface at the 
base. The vinaceous patch at the angle of the wing is but of small 
extent; the primaries, secondaries, and some of the greater wing- 
coverts are narrowly margined externally with bright yellow, and 
the vent and some of the under tail-coverts, as well as the greater 
portion of the feathers covering the thighs, are of the same colour ; 
the larger under tail-coverts are of a reddish brown colour, and the 
feet are yellow. 
Various specimens presented to the Society since the preceding 
Meeting were exhibited, and attention was particularly called to an 
extensive collection, consisting of 126 Bird-skins, presented by 
Walter Ewer, Esq., and some specimens of Sponges, &c., and twelve 
Bird-skins presented by the Society's Corresponding Member, E. L. 
Moore, Esq., of Newfoundland. 
The exhibition of specimens from Sincapore and Borneo, pre- 
sented by James Brooke, Esq., Corresponding Member, was resumed.
