This list is the outcome of a collection made between the middle of 
March 1887, and the end of January, 1888, and includes Birds from the 
country to the south of Seoul, as well as others met with on the return 
journey to Russian Mantchuria. The southern district was still poorer 
in vegetation and game than that near the capital ; nevertheless 42 
species in all are added to the former lists, while tables of Birds noticed, 
but not obtained, are added. [See Haliaetus braniclcii , n. sp. ( Fcilconidce ), 
Otis ( Otididce ), Halcyon ( Alcedinidce ).]

The author having stated his views on the general principles of migra- 
tion and distribution under five heads, takes for instances the families 
Trochilidce, Turdidce, and Hirundinidce, and deduces (1) that the present 
tropical species are those which migrated first from the Poles, before 
differentiation (and consoquont powor to withstand the climato) bogan ; 
(2) that, notwithstanding, wo find individual cases of hereditary disposi- 
tion to return northwards — generally for the purpose of breeding — even 
in these early migrants ; (3) that the later departures, being partially 
differentiated, took up their abodes wherever they found the climate 
suitable, but preserved the same tendency to return northwards to a still 
greater degree, if we except species which alter their range vertically 
instead ; (4) that very little, if any, evidence exists of a South-Polar
