THE ZOOLOGIST.

'The Birds of Norfolk. With Remarks on their Habits, Migration, and Local Distribution.' 3 vols. By Henry Stevenson, F.L.S. [Vol. i. ii. published 1866 and 1870; vol. iii. being continued and completed by Mr. T. Southwell in 1890.]

"A List of all the Birds shot on Breydon Water up to 1890." By Mr. F. Harmer in P.H. Emerson's 'Wild Life on a Tidal Water.'

'Catalogue of the Birds of Suffolk,' &c. By the Rev. Churchill Babington. [Published 1884-86; contains much valuable matter relating to Yarmouth and Lowestoft.]

'Transactions' of the Norfolk and Norwich Naturalists' Society, published yearly [1869-1899], contain many local references.

The pages of 'The Zoologist' founded and first edited by Edward Newman in 1843, are a perfect epitome of Norfolk zoology, having been the recognized medium for such records since its commencement to the present time. Annual "Ornithological Notes" in this Journal by Mr. J.H. Gurney include many local items forwarded to him by local observers during the last twenty years.

In conclusion, my best thanks are tendered to Messrs. J.H. Gurney and T. Southwell for assistance kindly rendered; and to Messrs. Durrant, Dye, Lowne, Preston, and Saunders for several dates of interesting occurrences with which they have supplied me.
