8. Hagerup on the Birds uf Greenland. 



[The Birds of Greeuland. By Andreas T. Hagerup. Translated from 

 the Danish by Frimann B. Arngrimson. Edited by Montague Chambej'lain. 

 8vo. Boston: 1871.] 



Mr. Arngrimson has translated from the Danish, and 

 Mr. M. Chamberlain has edited, Mr, Ilagerup^s notes on the 

 hirds of Greenland, the results of the last-named gentleman's 

 observations during thirty months' residence at Ivigtut, a 

 mining-town in South Greenland (lat. 61° 15'), about iQn. 

 miles distant from the open sea. A previous article on the 

 same subject was published in the sixth volume of ' The Auk,' 

 but subsequent experience has enabled the author to make 

 considerable additions to it. 



To Mr. Hagerup's notes is appended a new Catalogue of 

 the birds of Greenland, based on the works of Holboll, Rein- 

 hardt, Newton, Kumlieu, and others, which comprises "^all 

 the birds discovered up to date" in Western Greenland, 

 south of 73° N. lat. This tract is divided at 68° N. lat. 

 into North Greenland and South Greenland. 



Of the 139 species in the list, which is arranged according 

 to the code of the A. O. U., one is extinct and 53 are acci- 

 dental stragglers, while 24 others are of rare occurrence. 

 The regular bird-inhabitants of Greenland are therefore 61 in 

 number, inclusive of several which are " quite uncommon." 



"We venture to point out that in these days ail geographical 

 publications on zoology should be accompanied by maps. 

 An outline map of Greenland would have rendered this little 

 memoir still more acceptable.
