89 [Vol. xix. 



Dr. N. F. TicEHUKST exhibited a specimen of the Barred 

 Warbler [Sylvia nisoria (Bechsteiu)]. It was one of two 

 examples, both males by dissection, which had been obtained 

 at Woodchurch in Kent on April 24th, 1907. The first was 

 seen in the flesh by Dr. Ticehurst the following day, but 

 the second specimen he did not see until after it had been 

 skinned. They differed slightly from one another, the 

 one exhibited being more abraded than the other, which 

 had wider light edges to the secondaries and tail-feathers 

 and the dark bars on the throat slightly paler and less 

 closely set. 



These were the first specimens that had been obtained in 

 the County of Kent and brought up the total number for 

 the British Isles to twenty-one. All the previous birds had 

 been obtained in autumn and nearly all were in immature 

 plumage. 



The next Meeting of the Club will he held on Wednesday, 

 the 19th of June, 1907, at PAGANI'S RESTAURANT, 

 42-48 Great Portland Street, W. ; the Dinner at 7 p.m.
