L'autre espece, B. duchaillui (Cass.) = Barbatula formosa, Verr. (Rev. et Mag. Zool. 1855, p. 218, pl. 5), vient du Gabon. Je dedie la nouvelle espece a M . d'Anchieta, naturaliste-voyageur Portugais qui parcourt depuis deux ans l'interieur de l'Afrique occi­dentale et a beaucoup contribue par ses decouvertes a nous devoiler la faune de ces regions presque ignorees. M. d'Anchieta m'a envoye des memes localites plusieurs autres oiseaux, dont je me bornerai pour le moment a citer les plus inte-ressants:- Msalon ardesiacus (Vieill.), 6*. Turdus simensis, Riipp. Urolectes rissoides, Bp. Telephonus trivirgatus (Smith). Lamprotornis purpureus, Boc. Euplectes xanthomelas, Riipp. Corythaix livingstonii (Gray). Numida mitrata, Pall. Gallinago cequinoctialis, Riipp. Pternistes sclateri, Boc. Lobivanellus lateralis, Smith. 3. On two new Birds collected by-Mr. E. Bartlett in Eastern Peru. By P. L.

Bartlett has placed in our hands for examination some birds collected during his recent expedition to Eastern Peru, subse­quently to those of which we have given an account to this Society in former communications upon this subject*. The greater part of these are, either from the condition of the specimens themselves, or from their being females or immature forms belonging to obscure groups, not very readily determinable. But there are two well-marked species amongst them which we are, with * See P. Z. S. 1866, pp. 175 et 566, et 1867, p. 748. PROC. ZOOL. Soc-1869, No. XXIX.
