 Title, lip. 1-24, + a unr)aged pages, -f- <> unpaged pages, pll. 1-16. 



After the title and six pages devoted t<» the genus Syloia, come 16 plates, each with its leaf 

 (2 pages) of text, paginated only to p. 24 ; then 14 unpaged pages belonging to the last 7 plates, 

 and then 6 pages of "Additional Kemarks". The sixteen species treated and tigund are: 

 1, Sylvia rubetra. 2, S. phcenicurus. 3, S. luscinia. 4, S. hortensis. 5, S. cinerea. C, S. tro- 

 chilus. 1 , S. hippolais. S, S. sylviella. 9, S. atneapilla. 10, S. sylvicola. 11, jS.provincialis. 

 12, S. locustella. 13', S. phragmitis. 14, S. anmdinacea. 15, <S'. oenanthe. 16, .V. riibicola. 

 These, of course, do not all belong to the genus Sylvia, as now understood. The plates are 

 numbered to correspond with the ligiires here given. The mistake on the title-page is nota- 

 ble ; it must have pleased the author to see his 16 plates cut down to G !
