Numerous specimens have since been brought by Captain Beechey from Cali-fornia. They are now alive in the Garden of the Zoological Society, where they have thriven wellin company with Ortyx Sonnini, and some others of this group.

We have seen several specimens also of 0. capistrata, allfrom Mexico; and the collections of Mr Swainson, Mr Selby, and we believe, that of LordStanley, may be set down as possessing it. Ortyx guttata will form the subject of Plate 20. Part VIII. ceccaj <-JZa#iC&uM,-. 108.
