The plates are all hy Mr. Smit ; they are very beautiful. The whole number of species 

 figured is 104, referred to 51 genera. In most cases, a systematic list of the other American 

 species of the same genus is appended to the final illustration of each, thereby enlarging 

 the scope and greatly increasing the value of the work. Each of the species is systematically 

 treated with synonymy, diagnosis, and critical and biographical matter. The authors are 

 the highest authorities in neotropical ornithology, and this work is a monument of erudition, 

 industry, and artistic excellence.
