ERE FACE. 



THE object of the present List is to give a complete Cata- 

 logue of the specimens of the Order Gallinae or Gallinaceous 

 Birds contained in the Collection of the British Museum, 

 indicating the locality and the source whence each has been 

 derived. With this view the different individuals of each 

 contained in the Collection are indicated by the letters 

 fly 6, f, etc. following the name of the species and its sy- 

 nonyms. 



At the same time the List exhibits, by notes at the end 

 of each genus, those species that are at present desiderata 

 to the Collection.
