of a male Brazilian Teal with a female Carolina. Other hybrids recorded are as 

 follows: with the Chilean Pintail (Proc. Zool. Soc. London, 1891, p. 330), with the 

 common White-eyed Duck, Nyroca nyroca (the latter some time ago at Kew Gardens, 

 London), and the Bahama Duck (Journ. f. Ornithologie, 1915, p. 302). Mr. Wor- 

 mald told me that a hybrid which he raised with the Yellow-billed Duck (Anas 

 undulata) hatched in twenty-seven days, which is at least three days earlier than a 

 Carolina's egg ought to hatch.
