The author remained at Khartoum from May 1859 to July 
1861, making excursions to explore the districts lying hetwecn 
the Blue and White Niles. Nine species of birds are described 
as new ; but the Marquess does not seem to have been so for- 
tunate as to have met with any of the novelties stated to have 
been discovered by Baron von Heuglin [cf. Ibis, 1864, pp. 400, 
401). 
Gurney, J. H. A List of Birds collected in Damara Land by 
Mr. C. J. Andersson. Proc. Zool. Soc. 1864, pp. 1-8. 
Fifty-two species are enumerated, in addition to those con- 
tained in the list published by Messrs. Strickland and Sclater 
in the ^ Contributions to Ornithology ^ for 1852 ; and notes on 
twenty-nine of those before known to belong to the avifauna 
of the country are appended, 
Gurney, J. H. An additional List of British Birds found in 
South Africa. Zoologist, pp. 9217, 9218. 
The first list was published in the same magazine for 1863 
(p. 8675). Seven additional species are now enumerated.

This paper is in continuation of others published by the same 
author in the ^Ibis ^ (1859, p. 234; 1860, p. 203; 1861, p. 128; 
1862, pp. 25 and 149; 1863, p. 320), from the collections sent 
by Mr. Ayres. Thmty species are herein recorded as found for 
the first time in the colony, of which two, Calamoherpe gracili- 
rostris and Tardus gurney i, are described as new by Dr. Hart- 
laub. The latter is figured (pi. ix.) . Notes on fourteen other 
species . previously included in this series of articles are also 
added.

A continuation of a series of articles in the preceding volume 
of the same periodical (J. f. O. 1863, pp. 229-240, 299-320, 
and 461-474), by the author, who landed at Cairo in November 
1859, and in January proceeded up the Nile, returning thither 
in the following (as we suppose) October. The two concluding 
papers noticed above are chiefly devoted to observations on the 
ornitliology of Sennaar, but no striking novelty seems to be 
recorded.
