Durine the progress of the present work through the press 
many important essays have been published on South African 
Ornithology. We have, therefore, thought it best to write a few 
additional notes in order to try and bring the work up to date. 
This has been done more with a view to render complete the 
geographical description of South African birds, and we have 
been compelled to omit many interesting notes on their habits 
which have been recorded in the recent papers of Mr. Ayres, 
Captain Shelley, Mr. Oates, Mr. Barratt, and Majors Butler and 
Feilden, and Captain Reid.
