Mr. Godfrey Lambert exhibited a small series of Sparrow- Hawks {Accipiter nisus) to show the variation of plumage— especially in the males. The series included :— (1) A male and female in similar plumage. (2) A male in the first plumage with the general coloui'ing of underparts very pronounced rufous. (3) A male with colourless underparts. (4) Specimens intergrading between Nos. 2 and 3. Mr. Talbot-Ponsonby exhibited a female Sparrow-flawk in plumage closely resembling that of an adult male. Dr. Ernst Hartert described another new form of Pomatorhinus as follows :— For some time we had in the Tring Museum a specimen of Pomatorhinus from Trang, in the northern part of the Malay Peninsula, which is very closely allied to P. schisticeps olivaceus from Tenasserim, but differs in having the thighs, under wing- and under tail-coverts, vent, and flanks less rusty, more pale olivaceous, the thighs almost ashy grey, and the crown of the head a shade more greyish. Having now received, in exchange from Mr. Herbert C. Robinson^ a second specimen from Kao Nong, Ban don, which is entirely similar, I do not hesitate to name this form, calling it Pomatorhinus schisticeps fastidiosus, subs p. no v. ^^ A'i^ .\;^t.^i ^ Type: a. ^ ad.
