A, E. Verrill— The Bermuda Islands. 725 
Note.—The following are the principal works on the birds of Bermuda : 
William Jardine.—Contributions to Ornithology. Ornithology of the Ber- 
mudas. Vol. for 1849, pp. 76-87; vol. for 1850, pp. 5-14, 35-38, 67. Gives lists 
of birds furnished by Lieut-Col. J. W. Wedderburn and Rev. H. B. Tristram, 
supplemented by the observations of Col. H. M. Drummond-Hay and Mr. J. L. 
Hurdis. ‘‘ Mr. Tristram, (who lived in Bermuda three years,) printed a list in 
the islands, of all the birds that had occurred to his notice in 1847,” p. 77. In 
1849 twenty species were added, and one in 1850. 
John L. Hurdis.—Birds of Bermuda, in the Bermuda Pocket Almanac for 
1851, pp. 65-68. A list of 124 species, with 11 others regarded as doubtful. 
(Published without the name of the author, but as it agrees closely with the 
list in ‘‘ Rough Notes,” p. 303, it was doubtless by Hurdis.) 
John L. Hurdis.—Rough Notes and Memoranda relating to the Natural His- 
tory of the Bermudas. London, 1897. Edited by H. J. Hurdis from MSS. notes 
mostly made from 1847-55, relating chiefly to birds, but including some on 
mammals, fishes, insects, botany, etc. 
J. M. Jones.—The Visitor’s Guide to Bermuda. Halifax, 1876. Contains a 
list of birds, pp. 123-130, including those contributed by Hurdis, Reid, and 
others. 
G. Saville Reid.—The Birds of the Bermudas. Printed in The Zodlogist for 
October and November, i877. (Revised and corrected with additions by Lieut. 
H. Denison.) Reprinted, with an Appendix (pamphlet 43 pages). Royal Gazette 
Office. Hamilton, 1883. Originally published in ‘‘The Field,” 10 numbers, 
July to September, 1875. This paper contains much information concerning 
the habits of the birds observed, especially of the game birds. 
G. Saville Reid.—The Birds of Bermuda. Bulletin U.S. Nat. Museum. No. 
25, 1884. In this paper the previous lists are revised and some additions are 
made, while many references to the literature are included. The observations 
of Hurdis are also mostly included in this paper, for the author had the use of 
his original MSS. notes. Lieut. (later Capt.) Reid was stationed at Bermuda, 
from March 30, 1874 to June.3, 1875.

already been given by me in another place.*
