Abstract  Fan Chengda (范成大)'s Guihai yuheng zhi (桂海虞衡志,Gazetteer of the Guangnan Xilu Region) can not only serve as an important document for the study of history, but also provides much material concerning natural history in pre-modern times. Based on phonology, the comparison of pictures and text, and evidence from other local records, combined with practical bird-watching experience, this paper provides annotations on 11 colloquial names recorded in the chapters on birds and animals in the Guihai yuheng zhi. These include the terms baiyingwu (白鹦鹉, white cockatoo), wufeng (乌凤, black phoenix), fanmaoji (翻毛鸡, fluffy-hair chicken), shuique (水雀, water finch), yuan (猿, anthropoid), tushe (土麝, local musk deer), huoli (火狸, fire-spots ocelot), lanfu (懒妇, lazy woman), shishu (石鼠, stone rat), xiangshu (香鼠, musk mouse), and shanta (山獭, mountain otter).
