In the course of a discussion on various points in the 

 British Museum f Catalogue of Eggs,' he pointed out that 

 the statement in Dresser's f Birds of Europe/ iv. p. 545, 

 and Howard Saunders's 4 Catalogue des Oiseaux du Midi de 

 l'Espagne/ that Corvus comix was found breeding by 

 Von Homeyer in the Balearic Isles, was based on error, as 

 Von Homeyer in the passage referred to (J. f. O. 1862, 

 p. 252) did not mention the Hooded Crow. He merely 

 stated that he had found a nest, which was not examined 

 and from which no birds were shot, but which he believed 

 to be that of Corvus cor one. 



By an unfortunate oversight the date of the last meeting 

 was incorrectly printed as the 19th of March instead of the 

 9th of April. The accompanying slip with the correct date 

 is intended to be pasted over this error.
