* Polioaelus has, by recent writers, been restored to its former position among the 

 Sea-Eagles ; but I still keep it with the Ospreys, as I am not yet satisfied that it does 

 not possess the reversible outer toe of the latter group. An excellent field-naturalist, 

 of wide experience in India, assures me that the outer toe is reversible.
