25. One, Beauly, Invernesshire. Gray, in lit. to Harting, op. cit.

28. One, trapped alive, Argyllshire. Charbonnier, Zool., 1876, p.

Iceland. 1. One, a male, in coll, of H. E. Dresser. Dresser, B. of 
E., pt. 51-52. ? 
Spitzbergen. 1. One, old, nearly white male, in coll, of Herr A. 
Benzon, Copenhagen. Dresser, 1. c. (Benzon, in lit.) July, 1861. 
Obs. — This bird has been so frequently confounded with its allies, 
Falco gerfalco and Falco islandicus , that it is impossible, according to 
Dresser (B. of E.), to state with certainty whether it has ever occurred on 
the continent of Europe, but it is doubtful. One is recorded near Neron, 
Dept, of L’Ain, France, in Bouteille, Ornith. du Dauphine; but Degland 
and Gerbe (Orn. Eur., I, p. 73) consider it very doubtful whether it was 
this species, and no date is given.

[Archibuteo sancti-johannis, Gray. Black Hawk. 
Great Britain. Obs. — A specimen recorded (Mathew, Zool., 1876, 
pp. 4814, 4870) as obtained in North Devonshire proved to be a melanism

Sweden. 1. One, killed about thirty years ago, hitherto unrecorded. 
Dr. Vouga, in lit. In coll, of Capt. Vouga, at Cortaillod, Vaud. ? 
Obs. — The above instance may be considered as the only authentic 
occurrence of this bird in Europe. Temminck (Manuel d’Ornith., Vol. I, 
p. 52) cites two captures, — one that of an old male in the Canton of 
Zurich, Switzerland, and the other a very old female in Wurtemberg, and 
also mentions its occurrence in the Lofoten Islands, Norway (Man., Vol. 
Ill, p. 27), while Degland and Gerbe (Orn. Eur., Vol. I, p. 42) mention 
one said to have been killed at Postawy, in Russia. The latter authors 
also refer to this species two “ with heads and shoulders pure white, like 
the tail,” recorded by Nordmann (Faune Pontique, p. 99), from Southern
