EXTKACTED FROM THE BULLETIN OF THE SURVEY, Vol. V, No. 2. Washington, September 6, 1879, i/C -rvVS-fc*'^^*^ Art. XVII.— Second Iii^nfaliiioiit of Aiiicrican Oriii- lliolo^'icnl Biblio^rnphy. By Dr. Elliott Cones, ir. S. A. Part First of the "Birds of the Colorado Valley ", etc., contains a I>iblio;nraplii(.'al A]>i)t'udix (pp. 5G7-784, or [1]-[218]), ■\vhieh consists of a "List of Faunal I*ublieations rehiting" to Xortli American Orni- tJiology", being the first instalment of a Universal Bibliography of Ornithology npon which the anthor of that "vvoi'k is still engaged. The present article may be considered to continue the subject, as it gives the titles of " Faunal Publications" relating to the Ornithology of tlie rest of America. Tlie former i^iece of Mork has been received with great favor by ornithologists, whose kind expressions of interest assure him that liis bil)liographical material is Avelcome. This further instabnent of tlie work is constructed npon the same l)rinciples as tlie other, and with the same great pains to secure good results. Though of course much less extensive, containing only about 700 titles, it is scarcely less complete, and no less accurate, than the Xorth ^Vraerican portion. The compiler takes this occasion to renew the request that those who are interested in the matter will iioint out defects which may be detected in any portion of the work now printed. To those who may not be informed of the general plan of the whole Bibliography, he may explain that it is modelled after the " Zoological Record", and that the titles given in this second instalment are only those which an editor of the " Record " would have brought under the head of " Neotropical Region " — all general and miscellaneous works, and all those upon x>articular species, genera, or families of birds, being excluded. 1648.

The figures are monstrous, reminding us of those of Gesnor, for example, though many of the marked species are recognizable. The text, however, is minutely descriptive, and most of the species are identifiable. This is a celebrated work, standing in much the same ornithological relation to South America that its virtual contemporary, Hernandez's, bears to Mexico. "We have here the first description and primary basis of many species. Linnaius and other early species-makers cite Marcgrave freely, and he remains, in fact, quotable to-day. The reader will not fail to note that he has here the vernacular derivation of many names with which he is familiar in their quasi-Latin and even English rehabilitation, but the etymology of which would not necessarily be obvious to a classici.st. Compare witli tlie above the following, for example: Kandou, Pyranga, Guira, Guiraca, Ani, Mitu, Mituporanya, Jacamar, Kacurutu, Jahiru, Cariama, Ajaja,, Coercba, Maguari, Guarauna, Tapera, Aracanga, Ararauna, Vrubu, Kcngcta, Cocoi, Carasara, Urubitinga, Tangara, Tanagra, Pitangua, Aracari, Tucana, Toucan, etc. For an elaborate commentary on this work, see 1820 and 1824, Lichtensteix, H. 1658.

This treatise with its many beautiful plates takes a conspicuous place among the few great works on South American oinithology, and d'Oibigny is to be named with such leader.s as Azara and Molina of eailier times, Lafresuaye, Hartlaub, Tschudj, and the Prinz von Wied of his o^vn period, and Bui-meister, Pelzeln, Cabanis, Sclater, Salvin, Lawrence, and other.s, who have subsequently made the history of South American ornithology what it is. It is a comprehensive systematic treatise on some three or four hunched .species, introduced and in- terspersed with general considerations of the avifauna of South America and the classifica- tion and geographical distribution of the birds, treating the families, genei'a, and species in detail — the latter with s>"nouymy, description, and critical and tield-uotes. A coloi-ed map of the comparative zones of latitude and altitude illustrates the geographical distribution of 1 he avifauna. It is an expensive woik, not generallj- accessible in its entirety ; but the orni- thological portion is found separate, with or without the atlas. The new .species discovered on this Expedition appear to have been earlier described by the author and the Baron de Lafresnaye, iuGuerin-MenevUle's J/«ja«TO deZoologie, or elsewhere.

He explored Brazil from 1817 to 1835, securing 12,293 bird-.skins, beautifully prepared and fully labelled, representing about 1,200 spp., besides registering various additional items of information. He died in his prime, on his return to Europe, leaving his collection, almost untouched, in the Imperial Cabinet of Zoology at Vienna. For nearly thirty years little was done to render his labors available in the cause of science, though instances of 'Xatt. MSS." were of not infrequc'nt occurrence in different quarters. Upon the accession of Pelzeln to the charge of the collection, he began to work upon the material, and publish the results, with selections from batterer's MSS. HLs numerous papers, which were received with favor, may be considered preliminary to the j)resent work, which undertakes a complete exposition of Xatterer's labors and results." 1869. Bishop, N.H.

Appendix to the Birds of tlie Colorado Valley (pp. 5G7[1]-784[218]), which gives the titles of " Faiiiial Publications" relating- to Xortli America, is to be considered as the Jirst instalment of this work. The second instalment occupies pp. 239-330 of this Bulletin, this Vol., Xo. 2, and similarly gives the titles of " Faunal Publications", being those relating to the rest of America. These two instalments represent all that I am at present prepared to ])ublish of titles of this kind, i. e., in "regional" Ornithology. This present, third instalment consists of an entirely different set of titles, namely, those belonging to the "systematic" department of the whole Bibliograi)hy. In this department come the titles of all publications treating of par- ticular species, genera, or families of Birds, sytematically arranged hi/ Families, in chronological order under each family, with alphabetization of authors' names under each date. The lot of titles herewith presented, however, are only those that relate to American species. Of those fam- ilies which are exclusively American, as, for example, Mniotiltida\ Icte- rida\ Tanagridw, Trochilida', etc., I give, of course, all the titles in my possession; but of those families which are more cosmopolitan, as the Titrdida' or Fringillida', I select only the titles relatiug to American spe- cies; and of extra-limital families no titles whatever are given. Such is the ostensible scope of the present instalment : but I actually give many titles relating to extra-limital species, when the close relationship of such ypecies makes it desirable, or when the insertion of a few such additional titles enables me to present all those that I possess of certain families. The three instalments together represent a nearly complete Bibliog- Bull. v, 4 1 521 522 BULLETIN L'NITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. [Vol.V. rapliy of Ornitliology so far as America is concerned. They are pub- lished in this manner in advance of the vhole work for several reasons — among others, both to render immediately available certain departments of the Bibliography which are practically completed, and to incite criti- cism and suggestions for the bettering of the work. I am satisfied that, if 1 can come anywhere near the standard I have set for myself, I shall have done a very useful thing; and I beg those who are interested in the accomplishment of this undertaking to inform me of any defects they may perceive. In only one iiarticular would I deprecate criticisttn at present — and this is respecting the arrangement of the titles; for the scheme of the work cannot be fairly appreciated until the whole is pub- lished, including the several contemplated Indexes. The portions of the Bibliography now before the public suffice for an estimate of its plan and piu-pose; but I may add that nothing has yet appeared of several other important departments, such as those of "General and Miscellaneous'' publications, of publications in "Anatomy and Physiology", of publications relating to "Birds in Domestication or Captivity", etc. It is not my intention, however, to print any more of the work at present, the American departments being the only ones sufficiently perfected to warrant their leaving my hands. But mean while I am making manuscript for the rest as rapidly and as continu- ously as possible. NOTA bene: It l>oing absolutely necessary, in this part. of the work, to have some fixed standard (no matter what one) for the grouping of species and genera into fam- ilies, and for the sequence of the families, I have adopted as most convenient the arrangement of Grai/s Hand-list, as far as the Passeres are concerned — the limitations of the families in other orders heiug suflflciently nearly agreed upon hy ornithologists. For Posucrhic families, then, the titles have been assorted strietly and exactly according to the composition and sequence of those groups in the uork just menlianed. Hiriiiiflinifla'.

This and two others are the only editions I have been able to lay hands on, of this rather notable paper ; as stated in the title, the present edition is not issued separately. I give eds. of 1813 and 1817, and find another quoted of 1817. In the present, the author alludes to three earlier editions. The treatise in its present shape seems to be materially moditied, with a new preface ; besides which, it consists of the original (?) preface, pp. 433-438, observations, etc., 439-i54, appendix, 455-4.59, giving first and latest appearance of .Swallows near London for several years ; and of index, 460^62, of pas.sages relating to history of the Swallow in various works, ancient and modem, and the' names of Swallows in many different languages. (He derives Swallow, as usual, from A. S. swelgan, to swallow, and says the Greek "is supposed to have come either from xfikri Sovelv quod sdl. labia agitet, vel quod xe'^ec'*' ?^e<- labiis canif — in which he differs from other authority. The latin supposititious derivation, ab hcerendo, from the adhesive nests, seems to me very far-fetched.) Cf. Birds Col. Tail., i, 1878, pp. 369-371. 1816? Axox.

The subject is well handled, and the author's remarks have been established by later erperi- ences. S. F. Baird was the first to fix the species of our smaller Flycatchers with any satisfactory degree of precision. This he did in 1858 ; since which time, no material modification has been estabhshed among the N. Am. species of Empidonax. The history, however, of the habits of these birds, especially of their geographical distribution, nesting, and eggs, has been much involved. Little reliance can be placed on the accounts given by WUson, Nuttall and Au- dubon ; and even since 1858, there have been several mistakes made in the writings of Allen, Brewer and Coues, with reference to the distribution of acadicui in New England, and to the nests and eggs of all four of the eastern species. Late papers in the Xuttall Bulletin, how- ever, have at length cleared up the confusion ; and no one should presume to write on the habits of birds of this genus without consulting the present paper by Henshaw, and the sev- eral others in the Nuttall Bulletin by Purdie, Osborne, Batchelder and Coues, cited beyond in this bibliography.

Dr. Godman was born at Annapolis, Md., Dec. 20, 1794, and died Apr. 17, 1830. His prin- cipal work, "American Natural History, " is devoted to llaranials, as is well known. The original edition, in 3 vols. 8vo., was published, vols. i. ii, 1826, Philadelphia, H. C. Carey and I. Lea, and vol. iii, 1828, Pliiladeljjhia, Carey, Lea, and Carey. Tliis was reis.nued in 1831, Pliila- delphia, Stoddart and Atherton, without alteration, doubtless from the original ])lates. In 1836 appeared the third edition, as here eited, in two vols.: snbstanti.illy the same as the ori- ginal, as to main text, but with biograpliieal sketch prefixed to vol. i, and *tbe '■Eaml)les" affixed to vol. ii.

The type of Ihc new genus Cyanocitta is expressly stated to- be Garrulus cristatus (Linn.); wrongly given by most American writers as Q. superciliosa:^ G. calif or nicus.^G. cristatus is wrongly given by G. R. Gray and others as the typo of Swainson's genus Cyanurus, 1831, upon the assumption that the first siiecies mentioned by an author under a genus must be consid- ered his type of that genus. But Swainson himself says that cristatus, etc., are aberrant members of his genus Cyanurus. Therefore, Cyanurus Sw., 1831, is a sj-nonym of Cyanoco- rax Boie, 1826, leaving Cyanocitta Strickl., 1845, to stand for the crested blue jays of America typified by C. cristatus, stelleri, etc. — See P.

Unaria. fuscescens (Coue.s, described as sp. n., in np. torn, cit., p. 222, Labrador), ru/escens. and holbolU. The hvst two are given as doubtfully distin(;t from Unaria. ( Ji'. fuscescens has since been shown to be the dark midsummer plumage oilinaria. and rostratios to bear the same relation to the large Greenland form. Ji\ exilipes has been usually .iccepted as a good species, and of late accred- ited iilso to boreal continental parts of the old world.) Cf. Ibis, 1862, p. 187. 1801. Gloger, C. W. L.

Most of tliese genera are useless and burdensome synonyms, resulting from the authors' purism in rejecting prior names not 'classical" in form — a practice totally' indefensible, unless in exceptional cases. The original scope of the Mui<. Hein., as begun by Cabanis alone in 18.50, was much enlarged in later parts by Cabanis & Heine. Thus, Theil IV. (Scansores), of which this Heft 2 con- sists of the Picidm, amounts *to a monography oi' the several families treated. Elaborate Latin descriptions of all the species in the collection are given, with a copious synou^'my of each ; and many other species are a^o as fully treated in German, in the foot-notes, which latter form a running commentary, especially full in synonymy and in criticism of the lite- rary infelicities of previous writers who misspelled or misformed their generic names. The authors are careful to express their sili-prise at these ' ' barbarisms " with the note of exclama- tion, and, what is more to the point, to give the etymology of the many new names they are pleased to invent for themselves.

" This useful publication consists of a masterly digest of M. ^lallierbe's great 'Monogra- phic des Picidee.s,' published at Metz between 18.59 and 1862. Each .species is fully described, references being made to the works in which it is flgitred (when such is the case), and its habitat stated. Excellent indices are also added. The Pieidce are divided into three genera only . . . — a very ditfeient treatment of the family frtmi that of most modem authors. "We think it needless to indicate the precise limits of the smaller groups of species, or their rela- tion to the too numerous so-called genera which have been lately instituted ; for the work is one which must be consulted by any one working up tlie famil\-. and its last pages contain a concise synopsis of their contents . . .

As consisting of t%vn vols, folio, the general title is simt)ly OlSEAUX DOKfo ou A keklets MfeTALUyuES, by Audebert and Vii-illot, and such is the i>reliminary half-title printed on the first leaf of each vol. Uut the full title-page of Vol. I is as above given. It includes the Colibris and Oiscaux- Mourhcs (-— Trochilid(V). by both authors : then the Jaeamars {Galbulidce) by Vieillot, separa- tely paged and half-titled, plates separately numbered : then the Promerops ( Vpvpidce, Prome- ropidre, etc.) by Vieillot. also lialftitled. separately paged, and tlie ])lates separately numbered. The vol. closes with a table of contents of the wliole. eimtinuously paged with Promerops. Vol. H is still more composite as to the birds treated, but has only two ])agination8 and two numerations of plates. The preliminary title is Oiseaux dor6s, etc., as before, Vol. II. The full-page title is as given above under "Contents": but the "Grimperaux" of the full title are subdivided by a sort of chapter-hefldings into "Grimpereaux Soui-Mangas", • ' Grimpereaux Gitit-gnits", "Grimpereaux Heoro-taires', and "Grimpereaux"; continu- ou.sly paged, their plates continuously nitmbered. Then the " OLseaux de Paradis" are half- titled, separately paged, and their plates separately nimibered. The vol. closes with a table of contents of the whole, continuously paged with Oiseaux de Paradis. The "Grimpereaux" are a most miscellaneous lot of birds, about equal to the Linmean Certhia; inchiAiug Meliphagidre. Coerebidce. Si/lvicnlidce, Dendrocolaptidce, etc. The Paradistn birds are less composite, but still include others than the Paradiseidce of modem authors. The work is said to have been published in '32 livraisons, the dates of which are unknown to me. The date above given is that of the title-page of each vol.. being the completion of the work. There are said to be actually 192 plates, though the ostensible series is 70 -|- 6+9-|-88 -{-16=: 189. The edition is said to have been of 200 copies. Therearesaid to have been also 100 copies printed ou vellum, and 10 copies printed with gold instead of black ink. In the copy examined, in the Libr. Phila. Acad., the names on the plates are all in gold. Fortunately or otherwise, no scientific nomenclature is used in this luxurious work. If should be used in connection with Vieillot's article " Colibri" in Xouo. Diet. d'Hist. Nat., vii, 1817. which .see. 1804. Bartox. B. S.

Lesbia Less., p. xvij : Coeligena Less., p. xviij. These three hooks may he found hound in different ways : generally, with text of all three together, and plates in three separate vols. Index Genei'al helongs to 'Trochilidfees,' as per title of the latter, hut is separately titled and paged. There are in the whole series 864-66 — 66 ==218 i)lates, hut only about 110 species are treated. There are both plain and colored issues of the plates — both togethei'. iu the copy examined. These three hooks aie hard to get the hang of; the titles are so curiously mixed up that there is endless confusion in citing them, especially 'it second-hand. The three separate series are perfectly distiuct works, hibliographically speaking, vet represent a single mono- graph of the Hummers, with titles euough alike to be confusing, yet not different enough to be distinctive until they are studied out.

Lesson's work ou tlie Huuuuers is notable as one of the earliest extensive nionogTa'phie.-i of this extratirdinary family of birds, being only preceded by that of Aiuleliert and Vieillot. It treats, however, of only about one-third of the species now known, and its claims as a con- tribution to science are not of the bighest. The plates are liuely finished, being good work of this French kind, and when colored become very pretty pictiuvs; but the tcchuic of the work, as alreads hinted, is of moderate merit. Many new species ami several new genera are named, .and various species are renanu-d even when the author knew and cited their prior designititms — a reprehensible habit wliich Lesson not seldom indulged.

In the final rearrangement, these two Humming-Bird vols, become "Hum- ming-Birds.— Part I [II] ', and form Vols. VI, VII. Tbe main text, and the plates, are iden- tical in any issues ; but the titles and the furnishings differ. (Compare next title.) "Tbe Naturalistjs' Library" was a publisher's euterpri.se : but the weight of tbe editor's name, the excellence of the text, and tbe beauty of the plates, rendered it a very notable work, of no less scientific merit than popular interest and usefulness. 1833.

T have handled the vol. both as a separate work and as one of ^e Nat. Libr. ,- the title and collation are identical, excepting that the d-ate is carefull\ erased in the Nat. Libr. binding. When found in this connection there is absolutely nothing TO show what vol. of the series it is intended for. — Omitting the unnumbered vol. called General History of Man,' it would make Vol. XLI of the Nat. Libr.,- counting the Gen. Hist, of Man as one, it would be Vol. XLII : there being 40 vols, of the series without either of these two.— But the copy examined is .stamped on the back Hummingbirds, Vol. Ill"; going by this token, the work makes Vol. VII bis of the Bird Series, the two regular Hum- ming-bird volumes being respectively Vols. VI and VII. It is a modest treatise of much merit, as the .inthors name would lead us to anticipate. The arrangement of the genera is according to Bonaparte. Some 175 spp. altogethei- are treated, and, ou the 15 (not 14) colored plates and the frontispiece are figured the following : Frontisp., Docimastes ensiferus.

Again, he usually took a specific name for a generic ime, and to the species thus left nameless he would give a new name — scoring two for him.self again. When, as souu-times happened, these two tricks fell together, he wa? enabled to write ''Bp." four times where it should not once have appeared. Add to all this that lie was utterly regardless of ortliogra))hy — often wrote the same name iu different way.s — ([uoted others' names so carelessly as to make them look like new names — renamed the same thing often in mere forgetfulness — made genera iu Joke, for a chance for a pun, or to compliment a friend — and let the most slovenly printing pa.ss — with all this, I say, we have a state of things that is a disgrace t« him.self, a scandal to .sci- ence, and only to be adequately characterized by the word abominable. The present article may stand in illustration of the justness of my censure. It is one of four in which within as few years Bonaparte disarranged the Hummers. There is his article in the Gonsp. Av. 1849; one in the Compt. Fend. 1850; one iu the Ann. Sc. Nat. IS.M: and the present. He calls it only "the skeleton " of his .studies; we may wouder what it would be if filled out. It is a mere list of the names of 80 genera and 822 species. It is impo.ssible for any one who has not made a special study of the Hummers to tell which are here new names and which are not. Many are here used for the first time, and many others, botli of his own and of others', are used in such noyel apxjlication, or are so differently spelled, that they become dejure new names. I give the following list, being those that have •Bp." ;ifter them : — Myiaetina, Doleromyia, Leucippus, Orthornis, Guyornis, p. 249. J'j/ijiiioniis, p. 250. Lead- beatera, Reliomastes, Ornithomyia, Bourcieria, p. 251. Oodigena, Lafregnaya, Ghrysohron- chus, Heliotryppha (sic; Could), Eriocnemys (sic; EeiT'h.), p. 2.52. Ramphomicron, Myia- beillia. Adelomyia. Florisuga, Delattria, p. 253. Cyanomyia, Amazilius. Chrysvronia. p. 2.54. Saucerottia, Sporadinus. Thaumantias, Juliamyia, p. 2.55. Sapphironia, Arucettiiiux, Cepha- Icpis (sic; Lodd.), Loddiggiornis. Discttra, p. 256. Thaumastina, Lophorinus, Gouldia, Gouldomyia, p. 257. It ia directly pertinent to the subject of Bonaparte's abuse of names iu this family to refer to hia other schemes, which are not formally citable in this part of my Bibliography. In the J.i»i. Sc. Xat., 4th ser., i, 1854, Bonaparte has inserted one of his perpetual con.spectus, embracing Trochilidce. Heie he is not only at the tricks I have exposed, but commits an ultra-Xapoleonic piece of fatuity, namely, citing a number of names as if Reichenbach's, which the latter never published (see Elliot, Class, and Syn. Troch., 1879. p. 188). Conse- quently the reproach of them falls upon Bonaparte. ^\\c]3. wee Aline, Mo8qv.eria,Lv.ciania, Derbomyia, etc. Bonaparte was seldom thoughtful enough of the convenience of others to indicate whether a "Bp." n.ime was newly proposed or not; and it is consequently not easy for any oue to decide upon the original reference to be given in siu^h cases. Thus, in his ■Xote sur les TrochiHdes, " in Comp. Rend, (vide supra, 1850), he has a number of luimes ; and I notice that Mr. Elliot quotes this place and date as the original reference to them. Most if not all of them, however, occur in his Consp. Av. of date 1849. Aa the latter is a general work which does not come iu this portion of my Bibliogra]>hy, I wiU here give a list of the Bp. genera iu it — being those which Gray correctly attributes to "Bp. 1849" in his Handlist:— Pha'etomis {= Phaethornis, Sw.). p.

Elliot or myself is mistaken respecting the d.ite of this paper, the former having uniformly cited the many new genera of Reichenbach's as of 1853. Gray gives them correctly, as of 1854. The paper is a special supplement to the extra num- ber of the .T.f. O. for 3853 ; but tho Extraheft dates 1854. Moreover, Cabanis, the editor, who surely should know, gives the exact date as March, 1854. The article was presented to the seventh annual meeting of 'the German Ornithological Society, held at Halberstadt, July 11- 14, 1853. It is curious that Eeichenbach and Bonaparte twice crossed each other's paths in their coining of many new n":mes for the Hummers. The portions of the Av. Syst. Xat. of the former, and of the Consp. Av. of the latter, which contain the Trochilidce, both date 1849. Again, iu 1854. both brought forward numberless now names. In the former case I do not know with which author lies actual priority ; in the latter, Eeichenbach takes precedence, Bonaparte's article having appeared in May, 1854. If the reader will refer to my remarks npon Bonaparte's article of 1854, he will be prepared for no very favorable judgment of mine respecting the present paper of Reichenbach's. Of the immense number of new generic names which the German author here inflicts upon the TroctiUidte it cannot be that many are either necessary or desirable : many are mere syno- nyms, and none whatever are characterized. Not a few, however, take precedence over those of Bonaparte. I give the following list of the names which are Reichenbach's — most of which are lieie new, though some were proposed by him in 1849 — there being no distinction made between them.

Many of the above new names, in fact, have their origin iu the practice of these authors to discard altogether, or at least to emend, any name not cla.s- sical in form.

This iw tho earliest notice I have seen of the now well-known fact that immense collectioas of the bones, feathers, and excrement of Swifts are occasionally found in hollow trees to whicli tho birds have been wont to resort by thousands for a sci'ies of years. A late anony- mens writer (very well known to me, liowever,) in the N. T.

In addition to these plates of species, there is one of generic details, 27 figures, and a map of family relationships. The introduction includes elaborate essays on the classification of the family, with diag- noses of all the genera and species recognized, and on the geographical distribution, as well as an important r6suni6 of the literature of the subject. The family is divided into two sub- famUies, Aleedinince, with 5 genera and 41 spp., and Dacelonince, with 14 genera and 84 spp. The monograph is a model one ; it at once became and remains the leading authority on the subject, and forms the corner-stone of the author's high reputation.

It is to be .always regretted, for Levaillant's sake, that, while he described so carefully and so brilliantly figured numberless simcies of birds, many of them before unknown, he did not in any of his four great works use the systejn of nomenclature which would have entitled him to full recognition. He is the real author of vt'ry many new species to which syste- matic names were later applied by Vieillot and others, who consequently get all the per- functory credit that should have gone to Levaillant. Butfon, Brisson and Levaillant are tlie three great French names in ornithology which are not citable for species. Th(> beautiful plates of this work were dr:iwu from nature, engraved and printed in colors under the direction of Bou<|uet. The text (as is not very often the case with Iconographies like this) is much more than a brief description of the objects represented, occupying usually more thiin one leaf to a plate, and going into many particulars concerning the species of this family. The whole work foims the corner-stone of the special literature of Pgittacidce. 1801. MOROZZO, [C. L. ] Letter from Count Morozzo to C.

There are some interpolations in this series ; Imt not all those presented as such in the table are actually present. I make out 111 plates by actual count. They were executed by "Werner. The nomenclatuie is very lax, scarcely satisfying the requirements of a system. The names in the text do not always correspond with those in the table, from which I have taken the above list ; and the author's way of using names is difficult to make out, or see the point of. Only French names are engraven on the plates. This laxity or carelessness is a serious blemish upon an otherwise very praiseworthy and valuable monograph. There is about a leaf of text, descriptive, etc., to each plate. • "Many of the plates are original, others are copied from Spix, Temminck, or Lear; they are executed on stone, and though inferior to the works of Gould and Lear, they are perhaps the best ornithological lithographs wliich have issued from the French press. The text of this work is prepared with considerable care, but the nomenclature wants jjiecision, the latin names being often wrongly spelled, and the principles of binomial nomenclature often departed from. Thus the genus Palceornis is in one instance designated Psittacus, in another Psittacus sagittifer, and in a third Conurus sagittifer, with the addition in each case of a specific name." (Strickl.

IIi' fortilies his post' tion with his usual cogency of argument and his conspicuous scholarly attainments. Prof. Newton finds that, among the 78 genera of Linn. .S'. X.. 1766. tliere are only 12 which Linnajus can l)e considered to have invented : Ehamphantos. Buceros. Procellaria, I>iomedea, Phaeton. Palamedea, Mycteria, Gancroma, Parra, Didus, Menura, Pipra. He doubts not that had Linnaius known i>ur modern practice, he w(mld have designated as the type of each of his genera that species to which the name he adopted as generic had formerly been specif- ically applied; this seeming so obvious that he wonders at G. R. Gray and others who invented, the arbitrary rule of .selecting the first-named Linnivan species as the type of the genus under which it stands. He finds it curious that so few Linniuan genera, such as Tultur. Falco and Psittacjts (and 9 others) had been used by pre-Liuua-'au writers in a generic sense. The authors whence Linuicus derived his genera are Gesner, Belon, Aldrovandus, Clusius, Johns- ton, Brown. Barrere, Klein. Moehring, Brisson, and perhaps one or two others. Following out his principle, the author determines the types of 50 Linna'an genera to be as follows (to save space I simply cou])le the generic and specific tei'ms) : Strix stridula.

Tho first order, Raptores, of Savigny's System, appeared in 1809 in the first livxaison of the general woi'k, and was intended to form part of a considerable treatise. It is here that we find the several new generic names of Savigny's for Binls of Prey. In this extract of 1810 the 17 genera which the author adopts are characterized on pp. 8, 9. They are as follows:— Vui.TUUES. — 1. Oyps. 2. JEgypiits. .'!. Neophron. 4. Phene. A("c;u'iTKES. — 5. Aquila. 0. Saliceetus (observe the original orthography of this name). 7. Milvus. 8. Circus. '.). Dcedcdion. 10. Pandion. 11. Elanus. 12. Falco. VhVi.M. — 13. Noctua. 14. Scupg. 15. Bubo. 10. Syrnium. 17. Strix. Tlie species of these genera are given as follows ; they include many new names : — 1. Gyps vulgaris, p. 11. 2. .^gypius niger, p. 14. 3. Neophron percnopterus, p. 10. Phene ossifraga, p. 18; 5.

The text consis^ts cliiefly (besides brief characters of the species and genera) of a most elaborate and erudite synonymy of the names applied to these bird.s by ancient .and modern authors.

The first article is occupied with classificatory speculations of the most general character, relating not only to the pres- ent subject but to birds in general ; in the second portion of the paper the family is syste- matically treated on the quinarian plan, and elaborated down to species. Tlioro is nothing to show whether various of the author's generic terms are really new in this paper, or whether they had already been in print in the Isis or elsewhere. The latter is doubtless the case.— See this author .at 1845, 1849-50, and 1850. 1849. Kxox, A. E. Capture of the Sea Eagle (Haliieetos albicilla) in Sussex. '^Zoolo- gist, vii, 1849, p. 2386. 1849.

(See antea under Strigidce.) The species allowed in this monograph are G. passerinum var. californicum, (r=Cr. gnoma). G. pumilum, G. lansbergii (;=rufous phase of G. jardinii), G. jardinii, G. ferrugineum, G. infuscatunn (^=G.ferrugineuin), G. infuscatum var. gnoma {=G. femigineum.), G. nanum, and G. sijii.

This work is one of the curiosities of literature. Owing to the cause c616bre between the two ostensible authors, we have in effect the same work by two different authors, with two different title-pages, above transcribed. By compaiing the two preceding paragraphs, the difference between the two forms of the work may bo perceived. The work was originally published in 15 livraisons, 1808-1811.

Miidamo Knip accomplished a piece of truly fuiuininc finesse, bj' which she stole it from Tem- minck. To do tliis, she ciianged the cover-title of the 9th and following livraisons, and made sunilry other alterations to suit her purpose. With tlie lutli livraison she furni.shed new title- pages of the wh(de work, substituted a now Diseours sur Ics Pigeons, and directed the binder to suppress Temminck's title-pages, his entire Introduction, his Index, and liis Diseours. To account for the break in the pagination of the text between p. 23 and p. 41, sIk; even went so far as to declare it was a typogr.apliical error. This was cej'tainly .1 liold trick, regardless of conseiiuences. But ni> siicli piracy as seems to have suited tlie lady's taste could hope to pass without detection ; and Temminck immediately published an indignant reclamation, expos- ing and j)rotesting against the fraud. AVhat may have gone on under the surface would doubtless be even more curious than what lias trauspired, \)ut the historical facts are suffi- ciently novel. There is a iinitpn^ copy of this work in the Library of the Philadelphia Acadelny, from the Bibliothbque de J. B. Hazard, preserving all the original cover-titles, and giving .some mann- script notes explaining tlu^ whole atfair. These I shall transcribe be,yond. The first eight li\Tai.sons appeared under the following cover-title, 1808-1810: — Histoire | Naturelle | des Pigeons. | — | [ . . . ] Livraison. | — | A Pai'is, | chez Garnery, Hue de Seine, Ancien Hotel Mirabeau. | — | Do I'imprimerio de Mamo Frdres, | Rue de Pot- de-Fer, n" 14. | 1809 [Ksio].

The unique copy exaiflined is invaluable in containing Hazard's msc. "Notes Bibliogra- phiques." I think it advisable to publish these notes, as further explaining the transaction. It is to be understood that this copy forms two volumes — one, Temminck's, without the main text, and with the plates uncolored, but with all the suppressed pieces of the work ; the other, Knip's, with the substituted titles and discourse, the main text, and the plates colored. (The plates were issued in two series, colored and plain.)

The majority of all the birds in these three voluaies are thus described as new; a large part of the rest are credited to Latham. Temminck's names are barbarous in many cases, most of those given in the French vernacular being horrid ; but that has always been the style with the French ornithologists. Vol. HI concludes with a statement from Temminck of the circumstances under which his folio work on the Pigeons appeared — which is not only important as a bibliographical matter, but delightful as a bit of gossip. In explanation both of the present publication and of the folio work on the Pigeons, I bore give the substance of his grievance as set forth by him: The present work, says Temminck, was intended to .appear in folio, with colored plate-s. The tir.st volume of the folio edition appeared at Paris in 1808 and was completed in 1811, under the direction of Mile. Pauline de Courcelles, afterward Madame Knip, a very accom- plished natural history artist, all of whose works attest her distinguished talents. Tliis lady was charged with the supervision of the engraving, 47 drawings having been made by her from specimens of Pigeons in the Paris Museum, .and 40 others copied by her from M. Prfitre's designs, the latter made under Temminck's supervision. The first livraison appeared in 1808, with the same general title as the present edition ; MUe. de Courcelles being properly credited with her part of the work in the following terms: "Aves figures en conleurs peintes par Mademoiselle Pauline dc Courcelles, grav6es, imprim6es et retouch6es sous sa direction.'' 798 BULLETIN UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. [Vol.Y. 1813-15. Temmixck, C. J. — Continued. No sooner was the work completed than Madame Knip, "the ingrate", saw lit to replace the title with another in which she appeared as the author, her concoction being in the following terms: "... les Pigeons par Madame Knip, nee Pauline de Courcelles, premiere peintre d'histoire naturelle de S. M. I'lmperatrice et Reine. Le teste par C. J. Themminck [sic]. — Se vend a Paris, chez Tauteur, Rue Serbouue. Musee des Artistes." She suppressed 40 pages of text, which would have told against her, and did the same for the 16 double-column pages of the Latin index. The work thus mutilated was presented to Queen Marie Louise, and secured for Mad. Knip some favors hei' ambition had hmg coveted. Nevertheless, to keep Temminck in the dark, the lady had the wit to send him some perfect copies, proi>erly titled. It had been agreed that he was to have eight copies; these eight, he says, aud four others which bear the date 1808 and have the Latin index, "sout les seuls approuves par moi" — whence it appears that there are only twelve perfect aud authorized copies of the folio work extant! The aggrieved author found out the artful woman's trick when he went to Paris to ijublish the part of the work relating to the Oallince ; but it was too late. He could obtain no redress ; the plot was backed up by royalty ; journalists refused his "r6clamations", even his reply to an article which the lady published — and which, I suppose, if I could lay my hands on it, would tell quite another story. Such, in brief, is Temminck's own version of the affair which determined him to publish the present 8vo ed. For further particulars relating to the folio work, see under that head, 1808-11. 1824.

Thi,s is ostensibly Vol. II of thirTemminck-Knip work ; but, appearing many years afterward, with text by another person, it is in effect a different work altogether, though in continua- tion of the same subject, and prepared in the same style. The volume examined in the Libr. Phila. Acad, is bound uniform with Hazard's unique copy of Temminck-Knip ; but unfortu- nately the cover-titles of the livraisons are not preserved, .so that I cannot give the dates. It stands announced for 15 livraisons of 4 plates each, and, according to Eugelmanii, livrs. 1-12 appeared 1838-43. The following is a list of the plates : PI, 1.

The wings beat the air, but neither the body of the bird, nor the log, nor each other. As may be seen from many of tlie foregoing titles, there was for a time considerable dis- cussion in the sporting papers and elsewhere, respecting the mechanics and acoustics tti this remarkable operation ; and the same subject has often been taken up in general works which have occasion to treat of the Ruffed Grouse. Opinions have been advanced : 1) That the out- sidos of the wings strike each other over the bird's back; 2) that the iusidesof the wings strike the bird's body ; 3) that the wings strike the log or other hard object on which the bird stands ; 4) that the wings boat the air with such rapidity as to produce the vibrations in which the "drumming" sound consists. It would appear to be impossible that the peculiar sound should be produced in any other than one of these four ways ; and the balance of evi- dence is in favor of the last named, as held by the present writer and others. 824 BULLETIN UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. \Tol.y.

Of Otididce are described 18 spp., all referred to the single genus Otis. Of Glareola are treated 5 spp., and of Oursorius 7 spp. Strepsilas with 3 spp. and Hcematopus with 6 spp. The greater part of the memoir is of course devoted to the charadrian group, of which are described 7 spp. of CEdicnemus, 21 of Charadrius, 4 of Morinellus, 3 of Pluvialis, 13 of Tan- nellus, and 9 of Lohivanellus. The whole group is represented by a total of 750 specimens in the Leyden Museum. 1866. Brehm, a. E. Zur Naturgeschichte des weisschwanzigen Kiebitzes, (Chaetusia [sic] leucura).

" Novertheless, " as tho writer, who has well taken his point, continues, ' ' the name has served so long as a distinguishing mark of tho genus, that it would be by no me.ins advisable to attempt to make an exchange for the etymologically correct form "; especially as the form " Phalaropus " represents no very great degree of contraction. Moreover, as the writer does not state, c^oAapl?, a coot, and tl>a\apo^, bright, white, shining, or otherwise conspicuous, are etymologically tho s.amo, tho former substaulivc being derived from the latter adjective and having been applied to the bird b(^caus(! of its conspicuously colored bill ; there being tlus ad- ditional reason for not insisting upon the change. Brisson certainly invented "Phalaropus" to mean "coot-footed," but the ijidXapa of tho Greeks were any ornaments with which a thing might be furnished, as tho gems of a tiara, the studs of a helmet, the caparisons of a horse, etc. ; and " Phalaropus" is therefore not so far out of the way after all, for a bird whose feet are remarkably "om.amented" or appendaged. 1878.

"In the windiiijie and the form of tlie angle of the jaw, tliey no doubt closely ap]iroacli them. In their alimentary canal they are mucli nearer to Strvthio and Rhea (not Drnnuriig and Oasuarlug) than to any otlier birds. There is a Cit'onine tendency in tlieir myoloiiy, whilst theirdstcology pciints in no special direction. It seems, therefore, to me tliat, summing these results, the Screamers must have sprung from the primary avian stock as an independent ofi'sluiot at much the same time as did most of the other important families."

This is a celebrated treatise on a very celebrated bird, replete with curious learning upon the natural, mythological, and philological history of the Ibis, gathered by the author as a part of his researches in Egypt. The bird excited much attention about that time ; the Baron Cuvier gave his views on the same subject; and quite a literature was soon formed, both as regards the ornithological and the archasological aspects of the case. The present memoir became the occasion of much discussion, and the information it contains is found in various other writings, under different guises. 1805. VOSMAER, A.

"TheErencheatit upon Fish-days, and all Lent, thinking it to be a sort of fish . . . whereas the Bernacle (as also the Macreuse itself, ) is 0^'lparous, and of the Goos-kind ; and the shells [i. e., cirripeds] themselves contain a testaceous animal of their o\yn species, as the Oyster, Cockle and Muscle doth." After noticing Sir E. Moray's error, Phil. Tr., No. 137, and other equally absurd mistakes, the writer speaks of the Beinacle as a Goose, and identifies the Ma- creuse with the Anas niger of Willughby, p. 336 or 366. Cf. Philos.

The wing-structure of ProceZtoriidee is treated with reference to the presence of one or two ossicles at the elbow-joint, developed in connection with the apophysial booklet of the hu- merus, and the origin of the extensor metacarpi longus and extensor plicae alaris. These ossicles are found in 6 genera and not in 8, but the 6 are enough richer in species to indicate that they occur in about two-thirds of the species of the family. Being peculiar to Procel- lariidce, it is proposed to divide the group primarily upon this character. Cf. Coues, Am. Nat., viii, 1874, p. 546 ; Zool. Bee, x, pjj. 71, 72. 1874. Reinhardt, J.

This is an attempt to identify these drawings, which iigure so prominently in the literature of Procellariidce, yet are really little understood, and accessible to few. The 16 spp. drawn by Parkinson, being Nos. 12-27, are nearly aU satisfactorily accounted for.

(Aussi stSpar^ment, in-80, Paris, 1877, pp. 1-22, table, pll. iv, v.) I have only seen the separate, which however is identical with tlie Bulletin in which the paper originally appeared. In 1879 it was combined with a later paper on same subject, thft two togetlicr being rei.ssnod apait from the Bulletin under the title of the later paper alone. See 1879, same author. • This is a contribution of gieat originality, interest, and imi)ortance. It establishes a be. fore uiLSUspf cte'l fact, that Fratereula arctica regulaily moults portions of the homy sheath of the bill, and also the exoreseeiices upon the eyelids. The whole process .anil its results are presented in detail, according to the author's extended and novel researches. Two horse* shoe-shaped pieces, whicli .are saddled on the bases of the upper mandible, and two other pairs- of pieces: together with a similar shoT -shaped piece, and a similar pair of slender pieces, from the under mandible, making in all nine separate portions of the homy covering of the bill, are moulted; a.s is the excrescence ujjon each eyelid. All these deciduous pieces, as well as the peimanent portions of the bill, are elaborately described, and the appearance of th& bird at different seasons, conformably with these extraordinary circum-stances, is also fully presented. The hi.storv of tlie author s experiences — how ho came to make the discovery, and how he established the facts— is au interesting part of tho paper. The conditions of the bill before, during, and after the piocess are figured in color? in an ingenious manner. The author was, of course, greeted with acclamation ; the article was immediately translated, with editorial comment, by E. Coues, ffT tho Bulletin of the Jfuttall Ornithological Club, iii, Apr., 1878, pp. 87-91; and J. E. Ilarting gave a sjTiopsis, with one of the plates, in the Zoolo- gist of that year. The latter I have nol seen. M. Bureau's discovery naturally direc ted attention to the various and curious Xorth Pacific allies of F. arctica, raising the expectation, afterward justified, that a similar condition of things would be established among the.io forms. Tho author discreetly forbore to prophecy, but entered upon tho now obvious course of mquirj- which resulted in 1879 in a second ad- mirable paper on tho same subject. 1877. [GuiNNKLL, G.

Simorhynchus cristatellus sheds all the red parts of the bill, in four pairs of pieces, three from the upper mandible. S. " dubius" and S. " tetraculus" are the same bird, without these ornaments. Si'morhynchus eamtschaticiis probably moults one pair of pieces from the upper mandible, being nearest in respect to Ombria. S. cassini of Cones is the young biid. Simorhynchus m.icrocero8 moults the tubercle on the ujjper maiulible. .S'. pusillus is tlie same bird. The author does not appear to have seen Brandt's latest paper, in which he makes a similar reduction of the species of this group. It may be added, without detracting in the least from the merit of M. Bureau's brilliant discovery, that his determinations of species are, wilhout exception, the same as those given in E. Cones "Key to North American Birds,'' 1872. Neither Brandt nor Coues had any idea of the actual state of the case, so far as the moult of the bill is concerned, but made their determinations of species upon other considerations. 1879.
