1874. COUES, E. Continued. 



The scope and plan of this work are sufficiently indicated by the title ; it con- 

 tains, however, much matter not ordinarily found in works on taxidermy, the 

 mere preparation of bird skins being a minor consideration. The Checklist, 

 forming the latter half of the volume, is also issued as a separate pamphlet, 1873, 

 q. v. It gives ostensibly 635 spp. of recent North American birds (exclusive of 

 numerous local races) and 29 spp. fossil. Various additions and corrections are 

 found in the Appendix. Cf. Albany Cultivator, Apr. 2, 1874 ; Springfield Republi-
