202 STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE BULLETINS. 



The nomenclature and arrangement are recent. Price S7.50. J. B. Lippincott, Phil- 

 adelphia, Pennsylvania. 



Jordan, Dr. David Starr. 1888 — Manual of the Vertebrates of the Northern United 

 States. This is very brief but valuable to every zoologist. This succinct key 

 helps us to identify all vertebrate animals from fish to mammals, inclusive. It is 

 very satisfactory, considering its size. All three of the above works refer more or 

 less to Michigan birds. Price $2.50. Jasen MeClurg & Co.. Chicago, Illinois. 



Davie, Oliver, 1889— Nests and Eggs of North American Birds. A few illus- 

 trations. This work is very full and accurate, and very valuable to one wishing 

 to study the nesting habits of birds. There are many references to Michigan spe- 

 cies. Price SI. 75. Hann & Adair, Columbus, Ohio. 



Standard Natural History of the United States, Vol. IV. This large work is 

 almost indispensable to the working naturalist. It is to be regretted that its size 

 and cost place it beyond the reach of many. It is fully illustrated and embraces 

 the ornithology of the whole world. It also treats of all other classes of animals, 

 and is very complete. S. E. Cassino & Co., Boston, Massachusetts. 



The Auk. A very excellent monthly magazine, devoted to ornithology; the organ 

 of the American Ornithologists' Union and the successor to the Bulletin of the 

 Nuttall Ornithological Club. Its editors and contributors are among the ablest 

 ornithologists in the country or the world. The magazine is a credit to our science 

 and literature. Price 83.00 a year. L. S. Foster, .35 Pine street, New York City. 



The Ornithologist and Oologist. This is a much less pretentious journal than 

 The Auk, but is very interesting and valuable to the student of birds. Like the 

 last mentioned, this contains much regarding our Michigan birds. It is especially 

 valuable to the yoving ornithologist. Price Sl.OO. Frank Blake, Webster Co., 

 Hyde Park, Massachusetts. 



Forest and Stream. This weekly journal is more of a sportsman's paper, but 

 contains much that is helpful to the scientist. Several excellent lists of Michigan 

 birds have appeared in this journal. Price 84.00 per year. Forest and Stream 

 Publishing Co., 318 Broadway, New York City. 



The Oologist. This valuable journal has already passed to its tenth volume. It 

 is more than its name implies as it treats of general ornithology as much as of 

 eggs. It has, like all of the above, many able contributors from Michigan. Price 

 50c per year. Frank H. Lattin, Albion, N. Y.
