85. Goeldi un Amazonian Birds. 
[Album de Aves Amazonicas organizado pelo Dr. Emilio A. Goeldi. 
Imo fasc. 1901.] 
Dr. E. A. Goeldi, Director of the Para Museum of Natural 
History and Ethnography, who is always endeavouring to 
spread the knowledge of Natural History in his adopted 
country, has recently issued the first part of an " Album " 
of Amazonian Birds. It contains twelve coloured plates, on 
which are depicted some of the most characteristic species of 
the feathered inhabitants of the country, associated in groups 
of allied forms. The work is intended as a sort of illustrated 
supplement to the author's lately completed ^Aves do Brasil^ 
(cf. 'Voh;' 1901, p. 501).

besonderer Beriicksicbtigung der TierbescbaiFung, von Dr. pbil Gottfried 
Hagmann. 8vo. Frankfurt a. M., 1901. 55 pp.] 
Dr. Hagmann gives an interesting account of the Zoolo- 
gical Garden attached to the Goeldi Museum at Para, which 
is said to be one of the great attractions of that flourishing 
city. The institution was founded in 1893 as the ^' Museu 
Paraense,^^ but subsequently had its name changed to 
''Museu Goeldi," in honour of its energetic Founder and 
Director, Dr. E. A. Goeldi. 
The various buildings in the Garden and their inhabitants 
are described, and a systematic list is given of the Vertebrate 
Animals exhibited during the past six years. Among the 
birds we observe the names of Harpy ia destructor, Notliocrax 
urumutum, Heliornis fulica, and of three species of Psophia.
