Kensington. This specimen is 0,0^ in. long, a female. I hope to say more 

 about this later on. A fatal case of Adder-bite in a boy 4^ years old 

 is reported to me from Cumberland by Dr. Eden Cass (June 18th, 1901). — 

 Gebald Leighton (Grosmont, near Hereford). 



PISCES. 



Spotted Ray at Great Yarmouth. — On March 18th I saw, in this 

 town, a Spotted Ray (Raia maculata), which may be described as of the 

 size of a dinner-plate. It possessed a complete and well-formed fin, the 

 size of a business envelope, erect upon the centre of its back. It could 

 easily be raised or depressed to one side, and may not have been greatly 

 inconvenient to the fish when living. — A. Patterson (Ibis House, Great 

 Yarmouth). 



BIBLIOGRAPHY. 



I am preparing a Hst of the Birds of Berkshire, and shall be very 

 much obliged to any correspondents who will be good enough to forward 

 particulars of rare or interesting wanderers that may have come under 

 their notice. — H. Noble (Temple Combe, Henley-on-Thames).
