piece of artificial water by the road to the North Front at Gibraltar in November, 1899.

Alca torda.—Razorbills are occasionally seen on the western coasts of the Spanish peninsula.
Uria troile.—Guillemots occur like the above, and, if anything, less commonly.
These notes are admittedly very incomplete, and several more species have had to be left out from failure of identification, as during the time when most of them were made no guns were allowed on shore, and therefore complete identification was impossible.
