Extract

The remains of Birds from Quaternary deposits in this country have been so rarely recorded, that any fresh evidence, throwing light upon our Pleistocene avian fauna, cannot but be of interest. The specimen about to be described was found in the “Mundesley River Bed,” from whence was obtained the Emys lutaria described in this Magazine in 1879 (Dec. II. Vol. VI. p. 304). In a note appended to that paper, Mr. H. B. Woodward has given a short account of this Mundesley deposit, and it will be found fully described in the Geological Survey Memoir, by Mr. C. Reid, “On the Geology of the Country around Cromer,” pp. 119 and 126.
