Birds. 349 



Everett (Harold H.). 

 See Higgins, T. 



A brother of Alfred Everett and a good collector. I descril 

 collection of his from Sarawak, with some notes on Cyornit rufifroi 

 a new Bulbul (Ixidia parotica/is) in the " Ibis " for 1878 (pp. 417-419). 



The Rev. H. H. Slater described another collection of Air. Harold 

 Everett's from the Bangal Hills in Sarawak, and named Myiophoneua 

 borneensis and Parus cinerascens (Ibis, 1885, pp. 123, 124). The latter 

 name being preoccupied, he changed it to P. sarawaccnsls (Ibis, L885, 

 p. 327). It has never been found again, whereas Myiophoneus born* nsu 

 has been met with on several mountains in N.W. Borneo (Kina Balu, 

 Dulit, etc.). 



Exton (Dr. H.). 



51 birds and eggs from the Orange River Colony and the Trans 

 Presented. [76. 1. 25, 1-4; 76. 10. 18, 1-23; 77. 2. 5, 1-4 ; 77. 1. 23, 

 1-20.] 



Petrochelidonspiloderawas new to the collection. Dr. Exton collected 

 in Matabeleland when it was still an unexplored country, and resided 

 for some time at Kanye. Barbatida extoni was a new Barbet disc 

 by him. 



Eyton (Thomas Campbell). 

 See Gerrard, E. 



Eyton was a well-known Shropshire naturalist and a coadjutor with 

 Jardine in the days of the "Contributions to Ornithology." He was the 

 author of " A Catalogue of the British Birds," 8vo, vi. 4- OS pp. ( I 

 " History of the Rarer British Birds," 8vo, pp. 1-101 (1836) ; " .Monograph 

 of the Anatidx " (1838) ; and " Osteologia Avium." One of his principal 

 papers was a "Catalogue of a Collection of Birds from Malaya," with 

 descriptions of new species (P.Z.S., 1839, p. 100), wherein some now very 

 well-known forms were described for the first time. 



After his death his collection was purchased by Mr. E. Gerrard, and 

 I made a selection of the types for the Museum. The labelling of the 

 collection was in such an illegible handwriting that I fear I missed identi- 

 fying a few of them, but the majority of the Eyton types are now in tin- 

 British Museum.
