166 Dr. G. Hartlaub on a new Species of Pytelia. 
‘ Fauna Japonica' (there given as the young of D. brachyura, 
t. lxxxvii.) the hill is not coloured sufficiently dingy, nor the 
legs sufficiently black. 
/$ys 66. Rhinoceros Auk. Ceratorhyncha monocerata (Pall.). 
An adult male without date, and two immature birds, one 
shot in March, of the female sex, the other a male shot in 
April. 
67. Behring's Dovekie. Uria antiqua (Gmel.). 
An adult female of this pretty species, shot in April. 
68. Guillemot. Uria , sp. 
I am not able to refer this bird to any described species. 
It is something like Brachyrhamphus marmoratus, but has a 
longer bill, and is probably referable to an undescribed species 
n V f of Uria.

The specimen received is a female shot in May. It is brown 
marbled with blackish on the back, has a white band at the 
base of the scapulars, and is white below obscurely barred 
with black. Blakiston writes, “ I have one nearly black 
below, and more Woodcock-coloured above."

By Dr. G. Hartlaub. 
Pytelia retchenovii, sp. nov. 
Olivaceo-virescens; macula ante oculum pallide fulva; dorso, 
tergo, uropygio, supracaudalibus longis, tectricum et re- 
mi gum cubitalium marginibus externis obscure sanguineo 
tinctis ; rectricibus unicoloribus nigris ; subcaudalibus et 
subalaribus olivaceis ; mento et gutture dilutius virescen- 
tibus ; rostro nigricante ; pedibus, ut videtur, plumbeis. 
Iris nigra. 
Long. tot. 12 cent.; rostr, a fr. 9 mil.; al. 55 mil.; caud. 36 
mil.; tars. 2 cent. 
Dr, A. Reichenow collected this interesting new species at 
Bondongo (Cameroons). It is a female, and very probably an 
adult one. It is a typical Pytelia. I submitted this bird.
