  Since 
  we 
  last 
  noticed 
  the 
  progress 
  of 
  Lord 
  Lilford's 
  work 
  

   (Ibis, 
  1891, 
  p. 
  455) 
  four 
  more 
  parts 
  have 
  been 
  published, 
  

   making 
  21 
  in 
  all 
  now 
  issued. 
  We 
  need 
  hardly 
  say 
  that 
  the 
  

   recently 
  issued 
  figures 
  quite 
  maintain 
  the 
  high 
  standard 
  of 
  

   accuracy 
  and 
  artistic 
  treatment 
  displayed 
  in 
  the 
  previous 
  

   numbers 
  of 
  this 
  work, 
  which, 
  we 
  trust, 
  will 
  be 
  shortly 
  

   brought 
  to 
  a 
  successful 
  conclusion.
