A very important ])apcr, in which the structure (>f the genus, hei'e largely detailed, is taken 

 as the guide to its classification. The author concludes that the family cannot be kept among 

 the Aaseriuo birds, where Flower had placed it. "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." On tlie species treated, cf. P. iJ. /S'., 1863, p. 511 ; 1867, p. 

 415; 1874, p. 117.
