1) A small collection of forty species obtained by Mr. Waterstradt’s JBornean hunters on Salibabu 
has recently been recorded by Mr. Hartert (Novit. Zool. 1898, pp. 88.— 91). Of these 21 were new to Salibabu, 
and 3, Pandion haliaetus, Aleedo moliieeana, and Munia molueca, had not yet been recorded from the group, 
though the last is present in the Dresden Museum from Karkellang, as well as a small form of Pandion. 
Trielioglossus ornaius (L.), lyngipicus temmineki (Malh.), and Lyneornis maeropterus Bp., are included in 
Mr. Hartert’s list, but omitted in the above, as we have little doubt that they were obtained in Celebes. 
For the same reason Hartert omits Oriolus celebensis and Dierurus leucops. 
2) Hirundo javaniea, Ardetta enrhythma , and Dendrocyena areuata were included in a third collection 
from Talaut, received in 1897. 
3) The formula Munia molueca typiea >• is more accurate than the Munia molueca >■ propinqua used 
in the text, p. 551, the Talaut birds being, as one might say, more typical than the type!
