Recent Ornithological Publications. 



397 



quarto volume thus formed contains 518 pages, illustrated by 

 coloured figures of the rarer species. We cordially recommend 

 it to the attention of winter residents at Nice, and of all persons 

 interested in European ornithology. 



3. Dutch Publications. 



The fourth livraison of Professor SchlegePs ' Museum d'His- 

 toire Naturelle des Pays-Bas^ contains the enumeration of the 

 specimens of Momotus, Ibis, Pelecani, Procellai'ice, and Lari. To 

 Momotus Professor Schlegel most correctly attaches the genus 

 Todus. There can be little doubt, we have long been of opi- 

 nion, that this is its natural place, as will be evident to any one 

 who will compare any species of Tody with the smallest and 

 most debile form of Motmot [Hylomanes momotula) . 



The following table gives a geographical view of Professor 

 SchlegeFs nineteen species of Ibis, in which we naturally take 

 great interest.
