Trevelyan, Sir Walter C. Bewick Correspondence, with Notes. Tr. 
North. Dur. vii. pt. 1, pp. 97-107. 
A very interesting series of letters, mostly between Thomas Bewick 
and Sir John Trevelyan ; amongst them will be found the earliest details 
of the first British-killed Neophron percnopterus, with the correct date of 
its capture, viz., June, 1826, not Oct., 1825, as almost invariably quoted.

In one month, Mr. Everett secured 56 species, of which 24 were pre- 
viously unrecorded from Negros, and of these again 6 were new to the 
Philippine area, and 3 of them new to science ; one of these has • been 
recently described, and 2, Zosterops nigrorum \^Diceid<je] and Macropygia 
eurycerca \Columbidoe\ are here described for the first time. [See also

Contributions to the Ornithology of the Philippines. No. vi. On 
the Collection made by Mr. A. H. Everett in the island of Leyte. 
Tom. cit. pp. 339-^346. 
Owing to the contiguity of this island to others of the group, but 
little novelty was to be expected, but out of 67 species obtained, 2 
{Thriponax pectoralis and Arachnothera flammifera) are described as new.
