Our mullet is white & imberbis [_see Note 63_] butt wee haue also a mullis barbatus ruber miniaceus or cinnaberinus somewhat rough & butt drye meat. there is of them maior & minor resembling the figures in Johnstonus tab xvii Rotbart. Of the Acus marinus or needle fishes [_see Note 64_] I haue obserued 3 sorts. The Acus Aristotelis called heere an Addercock Acus maior or Garfish with a green verdigris backbone the other saurus Acui similis Acus sauroides or sauriformis as it may be called much answering to the discription of saurus Rondeletij in the hinder part much resembling a makerell opening one I found not the backbone green Johnstonus writes nearest to it in his Acus minor. I send you the head of one dryed butt the bill is broken I haue the whole draught in picture. this kind is more rare then the other wch are co[=m]on & is a rounder fish. [_Fol. 41 verso._] Vermes marini are large wormes [_see Note 91_] found 2 foot deep in the sea sands & are digged out at an ebbe for bayt. The Avicula Maialis or may chitt [_see Note 29_] is a litle dark gray bird somewhat bigger then a stint which co[=m]eth in may or the later end of April & stayeth about a moneth. A marsh bird the legges & feet black without an heele the bill black about 3 quarters of an inch long they grow very fatt & are accounted a dayntie dish. A Dorhawke a bird not full so bigge as a pigeon [_see Note 42_] somewhat of a woodcock colour & paned somewhat like an hawke with a bill not much bigger then that of a Titmouse [& very wide throat _added above_] known by the name of a dorhawke or prayer upon beetles, as though it were some kind of accipiter muscarius. in brief this accipiter cantharophagus or dorhawke [_a word smeared out_] is _Avis Rostratula gutturosa_, _quasi coaxans_, _scarabæis vescens_, _sub vesperam volans_, _ouum speciosissim[=u]_ [_word smeared_] _excludens_. I haue had many of them & am sorry I have not one to send you I spoake to a friend to shoote one butt I doubt they are gone ouer. of the vpupa [_see Note 35_] diuers have been brought mee & some I haue obserued in these parts as I trauuyled about. The Aquila Gesneri I sent [aliue _added above_] to Dr. Scarburg [_see Note 3_] who told mee it was kept in the colledge it was brought mee out of Ireland. I kept it 2 yeares in my howse I am sorry I haue only one fether of it to send you. A shooing horn or Barker from the figure of the bill & barking note [_see Note 38_] a long made bird of white & blakish colour finne footed, a marsh bird & not rare some times of the yeare in marshland. it may upon vewe bee called Recuruirostra nostras or Auoseta much resembling the Auosettæ [species _crossed out_] species in Johnstonus tab (54). I send you the head in picture [A _smeared out_] stone curliews I haue kept in large cages [_see Note 37_] the[y] haue a prettie shrill note, not hard to bee got in some parts of norfolk. [_Fol. 42_] Haue you Scorpius marinus Schoneueldei [_see Note 68_]
