I have nowhere seen this work cited in ornithology ; nevertheless, it gives a 

 formal account (pp. 135-147) of various (15 spp.) hirds, several of which are de- 

 scribed as new, and figured ; the narrative portion of the wort, moreover, abounds 

 with allusions to birds. PL xii, £ 2, Procellaria glacioMs; p. 140, pi. xii, 1 1, Procal-
