This edition of ''Guthrie's Geography " contains articles, important in some 

 respects, on the zoology of North America, by George Ord. The work does not 

 appear to be common, and the zoological articles can scarcely be said to have 

 come into current quotation until 1857-58, when S. F. Baird's citation and 

 necessary adoption of some of Ord's names called attention to them. The ornitho- 

 logical portion consists of a bare list of vernacular and binomial names, appar- 

 ently compiled from Turtou's (at any rate, from some) edition of Linnaeus, with 

 addition of two now species, and a few others described by Lewis and Clarke. 

 To these latter, scientific names are now for the first time given. This list, pp. 

 315-319, is followed, pp. 320-357, with biographical sketches of a number of lead- 

 ing species (under vernacular names only), mainly drawn directly from Wilson, 

 and is preceded, pp. 313-315, by a few general remarks, chiefly from the same 

 source. The following are the "new species": — YuUur columhianus, p. 315 (Lewis 

 and Clark, ii, 183) ; Falco ccesius, p. 315 (no description or reference) ; Picus mon- 

 tanus,p. 316 (L. & C, i, 398); Phaaianus columbianus, p. 317 (L. &. C, ii, 180); 

 Tetrao phd^ianellus, p. 317 (L. & C, ii, 161); T. fu>ca, p. 317 (L. & C, ii, 182); 

 Sterna Philadelphia and Larus delawarensis, p. 319, desert, oritjg.; Anas columhi- 

 anus, p. 319 (L. «fe C, ii, 192). The last named is a Cygnus. The list contains, 

 besides numerous nominal species of the older writers, quite a number that are 

 certainly not North American.
