 A general account, chiefly biographical, in greater or less detail, of about 450 

 spp. of the Missouri region, and various others, being a large majority of North 

 American birds ; with special reference to geographical distribution, very exten- 

 sive synonynaatic tables, and lists of specimens collected on various expeditions 

 to which F. V. Hayden was attached, or of which he was in charge. The matter 

 is sufficiently miscellaneous to partake somewhat of an encyclopedic character. 

 The families Laridce, Colymbidce, and Podicipidce are treated monographically 

 with reference to the North American species. The classification and nomen- 

 clature are substantially those of the same author's Key and Checklist. The Intro- 

 duction is dated at Fort Randall, Dakota, May 13, 1873; the work, how- 

 ever, was almost entirely penned at Washington, D. C., in the winter of 1873-74, 

 and run through the press by December, 1874. New genera are -.Amphispiza, p. 

 234, type Emberiza bilineata Cass. ; JEchmorhynchus, p. 506, type Tringa parviros- 

 trig Peale. Eremophila leucolcema, n. v., p. 38. Many new names result from 

 rectification of t-ynonymy, some of which only occur in the Index. Cf. Amer. 

 Sportsm., Dec. 5, 1874 ; Denver (Col.) Daily News, Dec. 3, 1874 ; Washington (D. C.)
