2. Stonechat (Saocicola rubicold). A clutch of six excep- 

 tionally heavily marked eggs from Surrey, together with a 

 normal clutch for comparison. 



3. Tawny Owl {Syrnium aluco). An unusually large 

 clutch of six eggs from Northampton. 



4. Sparrow-Hawk {Accipter nisus). A clutch of six eggs 

 almost without pigment and resemhling eggs laid by 

 Montagu's Harrier, from Northampton. 



5. Gani^et (Sula bassana). An egg from St. Kilda, 

 without the usual calcareous deposit on the shell. 



The Rev. F. C. R. Jourdain exhibited an erythristic clutch 

 of a very pronounced type of the eggs of the Dartford 

 Warbler (Sylvia undata undata) from Spain, and, for com- 

 parison, showed some red sets of the Sardinian Warbler 

 (8. melanocephala). It had been suggested that the red eggs 

 of 8. undata were really those of S. melanocephala, but a 

 comparison would show considerable differences. Moreover, 

 Messrs. H. Noble, F. C. Selous, and the speaker had all 

 found red eggs in nests of Spanish Dartford Warblers, but 

 no instance of the occurrence of this type in England had 

 ever been recorded.
