NOTE. The authors of Volume II of the PAceton Patagonian Expedition died about the time 

 of the appearance of Part 2 Mr. Scott on August 23, 1910, and Dr. Bowdler Sharpe on De- 

 cember 25, 1909. 



Arrangements were then made with Dr. Witmer Stone to see the remainder of the work 

 through the press, and to complete such portions as were left unfinished by the original authors. 



The manuscripts left by the latter were practically completed to the end of the Accipitri- 

 formes and these have been published with but little alteration. From this point on, however, 

 Dr. Stone will be responsible for the text, which will be based upon an independent study of the 

 collection and the literature, while making use, so far as possible, of the notes and memoranda 

 left by the former authors. EDITOR.
