ZOOLOGICAL LITERATURE. 
A continuation of the papers before noticed (Zool. Rec. iii.

longing to Fringillidce) is figured.

A continuation of the papers noticed last year (Zool. Bee. v. 
p. 57) . The present collection was formed chiefly near the Lake 
of Valencia, and contains 56 species, of which one (belonging to 
Galbulid(B) is new, and about 7 others deserve comment.

Notes referring to 15 or 16 species, none of which are new; 
but the ' probable distinctness of two (belonging to Corvidce) 
hitherto confounded is pointed out.

In continuation of the papers before noticed (Zool. Bee. iv. 
p. 71, V. p. 57). The first of these parts treats of a collection 
formed at and near Tinta on the Vilcamayo; but the localities 
probably come into two of Tschudi's regions — the Eastern- 
Sierra and the Puna. It contains 46 species, of which 4, be- 
longing to Tyrannid(B (2), Tanagtldce, and FringillidcCj are de- 
scribed as new. 
The second deals with two small collections, one made, like 
the former, at Tinta, the other in the valley of Cosnipata. This 
last, containing 42 species, is very poor, the great families 
Trochilidoij Dtndrocoluptidce ^ and Formicariidee being entirely 
unrepresented. The other comprises about 57 species, 13 of 
which are new to the district and 3 (belonging to TrochUidcB, 
TyrannidcCy and Anatidce, — the first, however, having been de- 
scribed by Mr. Gould) to science.
