CThe collection comprised 115 species, which are noticed at 
length, occasion being taken to correct some errors in Leotaud^s 
work (Zool. Rec. iii. p. 63). Synonymy receives careful atten-

350 species have occurred in Trinidady

The collection contained 44 species (one of which, belonging^ 
to Corvidee^ is new), elaborate notes on most of which are giv en 1 
in the authors accustomed manner, those on Otocorys being 
especially praiseworthy.
