The Month's Arrivals. 
I recently saw in De Vons, an unique, at least it was so to me, a con- 
signment of Sugar Birds, consisting of the four species together, viz., The 
Purple, Yellow-winged, Black-faced, and the Blue. Later, I saw at Mr. 
Hamlyns' some Cuba and Parrot Finches. S.M.T. 
The well-known dealer, A. E. Jamrach, has recently received some 
interesting species in pairs, viz., New Caledonian Horned Parrakeets, Scaly- 
breasted Lorikeets, and some species of Senegal Quail or Guan, which closely 
resemble diminutive Bantam Fowls. Also a Glaucous Macaw. W.T.P. 
t The foregoing interesting notes came to haad just as we were going 
to press. Further notes on same and identification must remain over till 
next issue.
