108 Recently published Ornithological Works. 
As was to be expected^ the greater part of the new species 
in the collections sent to Lisbon from time to time have 
already been described; but we notice three new names in this 
work_, two of them applied to Swifts— Cypselus toulsoni (p. 158) 
and C.finschi (p. 156) the former from Loanda, the latter 
from Angola^—and one to a Shrike, Dryoscopus neglectus, 
from Angola and Damaraland. The latter bird has frequently 
been called R. major by writers on South-African ornithology. 
Four plates, drawn by Keulemans and prepared in this 
country, accompany this part, on which are figured Crateropus 
hartlaubi and C. gutturalis (pi. i.), Platystira minulla (pi. iii.), 
Telephonus anchietae (pi. iv.), and Gyps africanus (pi. ix.). 
This book^ so far as Portugal is concerned, redeems the 
reproach that no ornithological work of importance has pro¬ 
ceeded from the Iberian peninsula since the days of Azara. 
That it does so is a credit to Prof. Bocage and to the Govern¬ 
ment Office under whose auspices his work appears. 
9. Dr. Brilggemann on Birds from B.E. Borneo. 
[Ueber eine Vogelsammlung aus Siidost-Borneo. Von Dr. F. Briigge- 
mann. Abb. nat. Vereins zu Bremen, vol. v. p. 453.] 
This is an account of a collection of birds sent to the 
Darmstadt Museum from Moera Teweh, in the interior 
of S.E. Borneo. There were 254 skins, referable to 93 
species. Two species [Hemilophus fischeri and Cyornis 
turcosa) are described as new. But the prize of the collection 
was Polyplectron schleiermacheri [cf. Ibis, 1877, p. 494), of 
which fine and most distinct species a figure is now given. 
The species called “ Batrachostomus stellatus (Gould) 
t. c. p. 456, Dr. Bruggemann has subsequently distinguished 
as B. adspersus (Ann. & Mag. N. H. ser. 4, vol. xx. p. 178, 
Sept. 1877). 
10. Dr. Bruggemann on Birds from Celebes. 
[Naclitraglicbe Notizen zur Ornitbologie von Celebes. Von Dr. F, 
Brliggemann. Abb. nat. Vereins zu Bremen, vol. v. p. 464.] 
This is a supplement to Dr. Briiggemann^s former article 
on the same subject (Abb. nat. Ver. zu Bremen, v. p. 35),
