inter se and always true to type. Whitley has some of this

new species ” and finds the same thing.


Add: 477. i, Rufous-breasted Wood-dove (Aplopelia

larvata (Temm.) ). Tavistock tells me (in lit. January, 1930)

that this species “ bred freely at liberty at Woburn before

the War ”.


478. Bar- shouldered Dove. For the entry as given, read :


Bred at the Zoo from 1868 onwards ( AGB ., ii, 276), but

Russ claims to have been the first breeder. De Brisay

in his Colomhes Exotiques (p. 50), gives 1885 as the date of

the first success in France, and records a second success at

the Jardin d’Acclimatation, Paris, which is recorded in

Bull., 1889, 54. They have also been bred in America

(Crandall’s 1909 List) and Neunzig says “ frequently bred ”.

482. Diamond Dove. For the entry as given, read : Easily

and often bred, first by Russ in Germany in 1875 (Bull.,

1880, 680) ; in France Comely bred them about 1886

(Brisay, Colomhes Exot., p. 30) and among British records

are the Zoo and in B.N., v, 217 ; vi, 45 ; viii, 147.


486. Passerine Dove. Add : , and many times in France,

Delaurier and others, since (see Colomhes Exot., p. 8).


Add : 488. i, Red-winged Ground-dove (Ch. rufipennis

(Bp.) ). First breeder, Noack in California between 1917

and 1926 teste Crandall’s 1927 List.


490. Geoffroy’s Dove. Line 2, after 1921, insert: Bright

also bred them in that year ; see B.N., 1921, 141.


491. Cape Dove. Add: They have recently been bred in

a cage in France by Godry, see UOiseau, 1924, 139, and

Decoux’s account on p. 69 of the same volume.


492. Tambourine Dove. Add: Ezra reared one in 1931

(A.M., 1931, 330) and, I think, has bred others since.


499. Brush Bronze-wing. Add : Crandall’s 1927 List of

Birds bred in America includes this Dove.


Add: 498. Bronze-wing Pigeon, a, Bronze-wing X


Brush Bronze-wing. Several were reared at the Zoo about
