 450. Thraswtus harpyia. 



AccordiDg to Dr. J<'elix L. Oswald, in the American Naturalist, 1878, p. 151, a specimen of 

 the Harpy Eagle was shot at the "delta of tho Rio Grande", in Texas, by Professor S. B. 

 Buckley, State geologist of Texas. A full .iccouut of the circumstance is given in Dr. Os- 

 wald's interesting article. I have seen somewhere a record of the occurrence of this species 

 in Louisiana, but cannot now lay hand on the refeience. According to my recollection, the 

 record may be found in au old number of the "Proceedings" of the Philadelphia Academy 

 of Sciences, or else of the Zoological Society of London.
