Abstract
In author's recent avifaunal research made in Mie Prefecture, records of the following two species are worth reporting.
The Reef Heron, Demigretta sacra ringeri was observed, as expected, in winters of 1958 (_??__??_ collected) and 1959 on the rocky coasts of Owashi and Nagashima of south Kii Peninsula.
The Japanese Wood Pigeon, Columba j. janthina, now almost extinct from mainland of Honshiu, was found on a small island, Suzushima in Nagashima-machi, Kita-muro-gun, where it was formerly common. Two birds observed were among a flock of Streptopelia orientalis. It is a typical species in the warm evergreen broad-leave forest.
