In the first part of my second volume, published May 30, 1912, I included 
p. 74, Puffinus reinholdi reinholdi and P. r. huttoni from the Snares : the 
former being credited with only three records of stragglers met with on 
the mainland, one from Victoria Park, Sydney, and one from Bondi 
Beach : to the latter I assigned a specimen in the British Museum received 
irom the South Australian Museum, and thence labelled Adelaide. As
