Messrs. Sclater and Salvin on the 
291. Elanus leucurus (Vieill.). (N. A.) 
Transmitted by Mr. Skinner. 
292. Ictinia plumbea (Yieill.). (N. A.) 
The Norwich Museum contains an example of this species 
from Honduras. 
293. Elanoides furcatus (Vieill.). (N. A.) 
Examples from the neighbourhood of Cajabon have recently 
been forwarded by Mr. Skinner; one of these is in the imma- 
ture plumage, and shows a white edging to the feathers of the 
wing-coverts. If accounts are correct, this bird is more nume¬ 
rous at Belize, where it is also said to breed. 
Subfam. Circin;e. 
294. Circus hudsonicus (Linn.). (N. A.) 
This is a migratory species at Duenas, and probably through¬ 
out the whole country. During the winter months two or three 
females, or immature birds, generally frequented the Lake, the 
adult males being much less commonly seen. It occurs in the 
Pacific coast-region ; and examples have also been transmitted 
from the Vera Paz. 
Fam. III. STRIGIDiE. 
295. Glaucidium infuscatum (Tcmm.). Strix passed- 
noides, Temm. PI. Col. 344. 
< 
A single example of this little Owl was shot by Salvin near 
the village of Laguna, one clay's journey from Guatemala. This 
species has frequently been included in the collections trans¬ 
mitted by Mr. Skinner. ^

296. Glaucidium jardinii, Bp. Phalcenopsis jardinii, Bp. 
Compt. Rend. xli. 654(?). 
The Norwich Museum contains an Owl, transmitted by 
V.Mr. Skinner, which seems to belong to this species. 
29/. Scops m'callii, Cassin, Birds of Californ. p. 180 (?). 
A specimen deceived from Mr. Skinner, in the Norwich Mu¬ 
seum, seems to agree very well with the example of this bird 
from Mexico, as referred to in P. Z. S. 1858, p. 296.
