T 38 S. UCHIDA : 



in the present list, still 21 more are added, — all which I 

 have indicated in the list by affixing asterisk to the names — 

 bringing the total number of bird species known from that island 

 up to 290. So far as I can judge, none of the added species are 

 new, but arc forms that have been known from either the adjacent 

 parts of the continent or from neighbouring islands on the north or 

 south. The discovery of Dicœum sp. has introduced a new family, 

 the Dicajidac, to the ornis of the island. 



Japanese names proposed for the first time in this paper are also 

 marked with asterisk. 



A list of the literature relating to Formosan birds is appended
