I have nowhere seen this work cited in ornithology ; nevertheless, it gives a 

 formal account (pp. 135-147) of various (15 spp.) birds, several of which are de- 

 scribed as new, and figured ; the narrative portion of the work, moreover, abounds 

 with allusions to birds. PL xii, f. 2, Procellaria glacialis,- p. 140, pi. xii, f. 1, Procel-
