PHILIPPINE ORNITHOLOGICAL LITERATURE, II. 



By Richard C. McGkegoe. 

 (From the Zoological Section, Biological Laboratory, Bureau of Science, 



P.I.) 



This section of Philippine ornithological literature consists mainly of 

 titles of papers by the Marquis of Tweeddale. Most of these were first 

 published in The Ibis, in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society of 

 London, or in the Annals and Magazine of Natural History and were 

 reprinted in the Ornithological Works of Arthur, Ninth Marquis of 

 Tweeddale, the full title of which is given below, under Ramsay. Tweed- 

 dale was particularly interested in the birds of the Malayan islands and 

 his last papers constitute a very important part of Philippine ornitho- 

 logical literature.
