This collection consisted of Pigeons of the Old World, which had been 

 gathered together by Messrs. Salvin and Godman with a view of writing 

 a monograph of the Columbiformes. The working out of the " Biologia," 

 however, occupied the whole time of the authors, and left no leisure for 

 monographs, so that the collection of Pigeons was handed over to the 

 Museum to aid Count Salvadori in writing the twenty-first volume of the 

 " Catalogue of Birds."

 began to arrive in England, the result of Dr. Godman's visit to that 

 country in 1887. In the last-named year he made a special expedition to 

 Mexico, in wluch he was joined by Mr. and Mrs. Elwes, for the purpose 

 of exploring some of the districts on the northern frontier of the Neo- 

 tropical region. Besides working very hard himself, he engaged the 

 services of several other good collectors, among the number being Mr. and 

 Mrs. Herbert Smith, Mr. W. Lloyd, Manuel Trujillo, and Mr. W. B. 

 Richardson. The latter was afterwards employed by Dr. Godman for 

 nearly ten years in travelling through the various mountain ranges of
