2. List of Birds collected in Siam by Sir Robert H. 



SCHOMBURGK (H.B.M. CONSUL AT BANGKOK). By JOHN 



Gould, V.P., F.R.S., etc. 



I have lately received from Sir Robert Schomburgk, Her Majesty's 

 Consul at Bangkok, a collection of Birds collected by him in Siam, 

 and which has been transmitted to me in furtherance of ornitholo- 

 gical science, and particularly of my work on the ' Birds of Asia ; ' 

 and being aware that a knowledge of the species inhabiting that little- 

 visited country will be of interest to all naturalists, I have carefully 

 identified and ascertained the names of the species with the view to 

 their publication in the ' Proceedings ' of the Society. The collection 

 now received, which is to be followed by others, comprises sixty-four 

 species.
