Mr. J. A. Bucknill on the 
From Guillemard's collections Dresser described the Coal 
Titmouse as a new species, Parus Cypriotes [P. Z. S. 1887, 
p. 563]. 
In July 1889 Lord Lilford published his “List of the 
Birds of Cyprus” in f The Ibis' of that date. This enu¬ 
merated two hundred and thirty-one species and embodied 
the results of the writer's, Pearse's, and Dr. Guillemard's 
work, besides referring to the list of Unger and Kotschv, 
to the paper of Herr Muller, and to information derived 
from various other casual sources. This was the first sys¬ 
tematic modern attempt at Cypriote ornithology. 
In 1901 Mr. Ch. Glaszner, an Austrian subject residing at 
Larnaca, commenced sending to the Hungarian National 
Museum consignments of specimens collected by him in the 
island, and since that date has despatched a considerable 
number to similar institutions, amongst them being the 
British Museum and that of Mr. Rothschild at Tring. 
Dr. J. v. Madarasz, from Mr. Glaszner's consignments, 
separated as distinct several of the species resident in the 
island : the Scops Owl as Scops cypria and the Great Tit as 
Parus aphrodite in 1901 (Termes. Fiizetek, xxiv. p. 272); the 
Jay as Garrulus glaszneri in 1902 (Orn. Monatsb. x. p. 163); 
the Dipper as Cinclus olympicus and the Crossbill as Loxia 
guillemardi in 1903 (Orn. Monatsb. xi. p. 5); and the Hooded 
Crow as Corone pallescens in 1904 (Orn. Monatsb. xii. p. 28). 
Glaszner's large consignments were found by Madarasz to 
include as additions to the list several highly interesting- 
species, notably Monticola saxatilis, Aedon philomela, Aedon 
familiaris, Sylvia nisoria , Lanius minor , Lanius isabellinus, 
Sturnus porphyronotus, Scops giu, Circus cy emeus, Circus 
cineraceus, Buteo vulgaris, Falco subbuteo, Pernis apivorus, 
Milvus ictinus, and Brocellaria pelagica, and to confirm the 
then slender claims of others such as the Dipper, Mistletoe- 
Thrush, Great Reed-Warbler, Ortolan, Hawfinch, Pied King¬ 
fisher, Curlew-Sandpiper, Cormorant, and Common Gull. 
From May 1901 until Nov. 1902, Miss Dorothy M. A. 
Bate was in the island. She obtained a number of examples 
of the local Wren and described it in 1903 as a new species
