138 THE AUSTRAL AVIAN RECORD [Vol. n. 



In the Zoological Record for 1867, p. 64, is added : 



" Pts. XI. -XV., pis. Five more parts of this work 

 have reached England. The most important species 

 noticed and figured is the Casuarius of Australia." 



In the Zoological Record for 1868, p. 51, is continued : 



"Pts. XVI.-XX., pis. Five parts of this work, con- 

 taining a large number of figures, have reached us since 

 we last noticed it." 



No note in the Zoological Record for 1869 appears, 

 but in the Record for 1870, p. 32, is the tale completed : 



" Part XXI. The only part of this work that has 

 reached us since it was last noticed."
