Broad- fronted Beaked Whale, which has proved to be the adult 
male of the Common Beaked AV^hale ; and have added one species, 
Vespertilio daspeneme (Boie) (on the authority of Dr. Dobson), 
leaving sixty-nine species. 
By this table, which I append, it will be seen that in the county 
of Essex there are thirty species, which are of constant occurrence, 
and probably all breed, and might, in that county, almost be called 
residents : these are marked It in the Table. In this number 
I include one Cetacean, viz., the Common Porpoise. There are 
nine species marked A, which must be considered accidental 
visitors ; viz.. Common Seal, the Common, Eudolphi’s and Lesser 
Eorquals, Sperm Whale, Beaked Whale {H pperoodon), Grampus, 
and Bottle-nose Dolphin, also the Hooded Seal which was taken 
in the Orwell, in the county of Suffolk, but, as this river empties 
into Harwich Harbour, ^Ir. Laver claims it for E.ssex also 3 and 
two marked E, which are probably extinct, but have occuiTcd too 
recently to be omitted altogether, viz.. Marten and Black Eat, 
making a total of forty-one species out of sixty-nine in the general 
list. Mr. Laver also suspects the Gray Seal of having occurred 
on the Essex coast. 
In Norfolk there are twenty-eight residents, or regular visitors. 
I again include the Porpoise, which is abundant every season ; also 
the Common and Grey Seals, which have both been known to 
produce young on our coast. Of accidental visitors there are ten ; 
viz., Parti-coloured Bat, Einged Seal, Atlantic Eight-whale, 
Common and Lesser Eorquals, Sperm Whale, Beaked Whale, 
Grampus, Pilot Whale, and White-beaked Dolphin. The in- 
digenous races of two others are probably extinct, but individuals 
have occurred recently — viz., the Marten and Badger, and one other, 
the Dormouse — which it is possible may have been re-introduced ; 
making a total of forty-one species out of sixty-nine. 
In Yorkshire there are thirty -two species -which come under the 
first class E, in which I include the Marten, Badger, and the Eed 
Deer (marking the latter as doubtful), for, although remaining 
only in a semi-domesticated state in parks, Mr. Eoebuck believes in 
some instances they are, “in all probability, the lineal descendants of 
the wild stock which formerly inhabited the surrounding districts.” 
Of the second class A, there are thirteen individuals, including the 
Hairy-armed Bat, which has occurred only on a single occasion ;
