PLATE CXXXIV. FIG. II. 
Upon the authority of Mr. Heysham, this species, which 
was shot off the coast of Dorsetshire, was first added to 
the list of British Birds, and figured in Mr. YarrelTs work; 
since then, others have been observed, and mentioned in 
the pages of the “ Zoologist/' The egg now drawn, which 
is in the collection of Mr. Salmon, was brought from Hun¬ 
gary by Mr. Cockrane. 
The Whiskered Tern, although met with in several 
parts of Europe, appears to be nowhere common.
