Pollen, Fran90IS. Note siir V Oxynotus ferrugineus. Bull, de 
la Soc. d^Acclimat. et d^Hist. Nat. de Tile de la Reunion, 
tom. iii. Saint Denis : janvier 1865, pp. 4, pi. i. 
The observations of the author as made by himself in Reunion 
(Bourbon) are valuable, but they are mingled with several state- 
ments with regard to other matters of doubtful accuracy, some 
of which, however, appear to be of much importance. It is pro- 
bable that the author^s descriptions and figures refer to a 
species distinct from that which has been usually identified with 
the Lanius ferrugineus of Gmelin. {Cf, Ibis, 1865, p. 530, and 
1866, p. 224.) 
Oxynotus ferrtigineus (Quoy et Gaimard) is proposed to be called 0. typi- 
cus. G. Hartlaub, J. f. O. 1865, p. 160.
