In this paper Brehm is very thor<iughlv himself, carrying out his peculiar views to their 

 logical exti'eme. All these '•s'jccies," I'eal or Brehmian, some of which are here described as 

 new, are very elaborately ti'cated ; and the plate, from nature by J. F. ^aumann, is valuable 

 as showing how complete is the graduation in size of bill from the largest to the smallest. 

 Among the twenty "species" here treated, some five or six might be held worthy of recogni- 

 tion by many ornithologists.
