jn.— LIST OF THE BIRDS OF TIMOE-LAUT.* 



In order to give as correct a list as possible of the Avifauna of the 

 Tenimber Islands, I have reproduced the original descriptions of my 

 collections given by Dr. Sclater, in the ' Proceedings ' of the Zoological 

 Society, (1883, pp. 48, 194). I have also included the species recently 

 described by Dr. Meyer, from specimens obtained by Mr. Eeidel's hunters, 

 in the paper read by him at the Ornithological Congress in Vienna in 

 188i, entitled, " Neue und unbeniigend bekennte Vogel Nester und Eier 

 aiis dam Ostindischen Archipel im Konigl. Zool. Mus. zu Dresden." 

 Some of these species were also met with by myself, but I have in many 

 cases not been able to recpgniso their distinctness from other. previously 

 described forms. As many of these differences of opinion have been the 

 subject of discussion between Dr. Meyer and myself, I have thought it as 

 well to reproduce my published remarks in the present appendix.
