Captain P. W. Munn on the [Ibis, 
154. Glaucion clangula. Golden-Eye. 
Included by y. Jordans on Barcelo’s authority. 
155. Mergus merganser. Goosander. 
156. Mergus serrator. Red-breasted Merganser. 
During the wet autumn and winter of 1920-21 several 
small parties of both these species frequented the lagoons 
and inundation, near Puerto Alcudia, as well as the mouths 
of the streams running into Alcudia Bay. 
Yon Jordans quotes Barcelo as the authority for the occur¬ 
rence of both these species, as well as for— 
157. Mergellus alhellus. Smew. 
158. Phcenicopterus antiquorum. Flamingo. 
Whatever may have been the case in former years, the 
Flamingo certainly does not now breed in Majorca; possibly 
it may rarely occur on migration. I know of no localities 
where it would be likely to remain for any time. 
Included in v. Jordans’ list. 
159. Ardea cinerea. Heron. 
During the winter quantities of Herons inhabit the 
Albufera and lagoons, and stand in rows along the dykes 
and ditches, and also frequent the sand-banks in Alcudia 
Bay. They roost on the cliffs of the Cabo del Pinar, with 
the Cormorants, and some nest. A few pairs evidently nest 
also in the reed-beds of the Albufera, but the recesses of this 
great swamp are quite inaccessible in summer, being covered 
with dense thickets of reeds growing in water more or less 
deep. Some pass over the district on spring migration. 
Observed by v. Jordans. 
160. Ardea purpurea. Purple Heron. 
Arrives in April in small numbers in the Albufera, where 
it breeds ; but only visits the Albuferete on passage, as this 
marsh is now so curtailed in size. 
Observed by v. Jordans. 
161. Egretta alba. Great White Heron. 
Yon Jordans remarks on Barcelo’s note on this species.
