CocKATEEL. (Mrs. W. H. Eead, 215, Chesterton Road, Cam- 
bridge) . Cause of death, enteritis. 
Pakeoi Finc h. (Miss Drummond, Mains of Megginch, Er- 
rol, N.B.) The cause of death was pneumonia. 
GouLDiAN FiNcu. (T. Hebb, Luton). Cause of death, pneu- 
monia. There was a general staining of the body with bile. The 
beak was affected with scabies due to a mite termed Sar copies mu- 
ians, which commonly causes scaly leg in poultry, pheasants, and other 
galiinaceae, and scaly bill or beak in cage birds, especially the 
Gouldian Finch. 
CuTTHKOAT (cf ) • (,W. A. Baiubridge, Thorpe, Surrey). Cause 
of death, pneumonia. 
Two BuDGEKiGABS. (F. W. Bull, Sutton, Surrey). Cause 
of death, pneumonia. 
(The Hon. Mary C. Hawke, Tadcaster). All three of the 
birds died from the effects of pneumonia. The Stonechat also had 
enteritis. 1 do not keep any Green Cardinals now; my last died 
from a fungous disease of the air-sacs, due to the Aspergillus fuiiii- 
gatus. This disease attacks every class of poultry and pheasants 
and not rarely aviary and cage-birds, the Green Cardinal in par- 
ticular. 
Lavender Finch. (M. J. Flannery, Nenagh). Cause of 
death, enteritis. 
Java Sparrow. (Miss D. |E. Pithie, Lymington, Hants). 
Cause of death, enteritis. 
Alpine Chough, iH. N. Snarey, Ansdell). Cause of death, 
pericarditis. 
Blue-rumped Parrot (q') (Psittinus incertus). (Rev. Can- 
on Button Fairford). There was a caseous nodule in the right lung 
which was of some standing. I did not ascertain the nature of the le- 
sion. It did not contain the Aspergillus fumigatus, the fungus com- 
monly causing similar lesions to that in your bird. 
Two Cock Nonpareil Buntings. (Geo. Scott Freeland, 
Tonbridge). Cause of death, enteritis, which was accompanied by 
diarrhaea.
