Contains a bibliography (pp. 224-244) and an annotated list 

 of 351 species (pp. 244-276). This is a carefully prepared and 

 valuable paper, but unfortunately seems to be little known 

 among students of western Missouri birds, and the Public 

 Library of Kansas City does not own a copy. The volume of 

 Transactions containing this study may be had from the Sec- 

 retary of the Academy at Lawrence.

 neighborhood.
