Text Appearing Before Image:
igula fuligula (Linn.). Salvadori says of this species: Accidental in the Malay Archipelago(Philippines and Borneo). I believe, however, that it is a regular falland winter visitant to our northern islands at least. We have specimensfrom the Laguna de Bay, Luzon, and it was common on Calayan con-sidering the scant accommodation for ducks. I have seen numbers ofthem in Quinta Market, Manila. Parties of from two to five couldusually be found on a small river or some of the carabao wallows, wherethey feed on small fresh-water mollusks or the larva? of frogs. Mareca Penelope (Linn.) ; Salvadori, Cat. Bds., XXVII, p. 231. A male from Calayan, November 26. No more were seen. Previouslyunrecorded from the Philippines. Spatula clypeata (Linn.). One specimen from Calayan. Dulumpapa is the name used forany species of the duck tribe. Pelecanus philipfensis Gm. The Philippine pelican has been recorded but rarely from the Islandsand probably it is strictly confined to fresh-water marshes and lakes
Text Appearing After Image:
15 of the largest islands. Possibly it occurs on Luzon only. Whiteheaddid not meet with it, and neither the Steere expedition nor the Menageexpedition obtained a specimen. A specimen of this species in theMuseum was killed by Secretary Worcester in Tarlac Province, Luzon,February 22, 1904. The two accompanying plates of the pelican arefrom photographs of a live bird owned by Secretary Worcester. Phalacrocorax carbo (Linn.). Calayan. The first specimen was seen and killed October 26. Thisbird retains some white feathers of the young plumage, and another,taken November 11, is nearly pure white below. After this date threeor four cormorants took up quarters along the river. Known as casili,although this name belongs properly to the snake bird (Plotus). Da-lumpapa and papa also are used as names for the cormorant bypeople of Calayan. Circus spilonotus Kaup; Sharpe, Cat. Bds., I, p. 58. About a dozen marsh hawks were collected on Calayan. Two of theseare nearly adult and seem to be C. spil
