Aden and the Neighbourhood. 
t22. Bulbul. (Pycnonotus arsinoe.) 
Resident, both in Aden itself and also in the neighbour¬ 
hood. I found the nest with three hard-set eggs in Gold 
Mohur valley, at Aden, on the 17th of April, 1883. The 
eggs were of the usual Bulbul type, and were sent to Mr. 
Hume at Simla. 
A larger Bulbul is occasionally seen inland. 
23. Chats. {Saxicolee, sp. inc.) 
Two species, which I believe to be S. cenanthe and S. sta - 
pazina , are regular cold-weather visitants. More species 
may, perhaps, visit us in the cold weather, for I fancy I have 
seen a dark-coloured Chat as well. 
1*24. Temminck's Chat-Robin. (Myrmecocichla me- 
lanura.) 
The Aden Robin is a resident, and is reputed to build in 
holes in rocks, walls, &c., but I have never come across a 
nest. It has a very sweet little song. 
25. Redstart. [Ruticilla, sp.inc.) 
An occasional cold-weather visitant. 
26. Warbler. (Sp. inc.) 
A small Warbler seems to be a regular spring visitant, 
several being seen in the caper-buslies on the hill-sides during 
May and June 1883. Skin sent to Mr. Hume. 
27. White Wagtail. (Motacilla alba.) 
A regular cold-weather visitant, appearing, too, at odd 
times of the year. It never remains long, excepting in the 
cold weather. 
28. Black-headed Wagtail. {Motacilla feldeggii.) 
A species of yellow Wagtail with a black head is occa¬ 
sionally to be seen inland. 
29. 30. Crows. (Corvus, sp. inc.) 
A Raven, which I think must be Corvus affinis, is a resi¬ 
dent, but has, I believe, been imported. There are only 
three individuals, and the number does not seem to increase. 
A very large Raven is seen in the desert inland.
