In closing a short notice of this tJie General Report on the Oruithology of tbo 

 Pacific Railroad Snrveys, it will be well to recapitulate the several special asso- 

 ciated reports, scattered through the scries of volumes in such irregular fashion 

 that their accurate quotation becomes amatterof the greatest difficulty, — in fact, I 

 have never seen a full and precise citation made by any one not thoroughly con- 

 versant with the compositi. n of the whole publication. In the present Biblio- 

 graphy, I Lave adop'ed the method of quoting in full the general title-page of 

 the whole volume in which each report appears, following this with quotation of 

 the special sub-title page of the zoological portion, and this with quotation of the 

 particular title of the ornithological article, giving the pp. and pU. only of the 

 latter. 

 Bird-matter is found in the following volumes: — 

 Vol. IV, 1856. Part VI, No, 1, Kennerly's Meport, pp. 1-17 (being preliminary 



to his final report, which appeared in vol. X, 1859). 

 Vol. VI, 1857. Part IV, No. 2. Newberry's Report, pp. 73-110, -f-i-iv, pU. 



("Williamson's & Abbot's Routes in California and Oregon). 

 Voh IX, 1858. Baird's General Report, occupying the whole vol. 

 Vol. X, 1859. The first half of this singularly composite voh is occupied with 

 Saikd's General Report on Reptiles of all the Surveys (plates only— text 

 never published), and Gil^ard's General Report on the Fishes (text and 

 plates). The rest consists of a great number of detached deferred zoologi- 

 cal articles, huddled together pell-mell, belonging to reports which con- 

 stitute previous vols, of the series ; among them are four bird-articles, as 

 follows :~BAniD's, on Birds of Gunnison's and Bechwith's Routes near 38«A, 

 39(A, and ilst parallels, being No. 2, pp. 11-16, pll., and belonging to the 

 report published in the ii. vol. of the series ; Kennerly's, on Birds of 

 Whipple's Route near 35tA parallel, being No. 2, pp. 19-35, pll., of Part VI of 

 report published in the iv. voL of the series ; Heermann'b, (1), on Birds of 

 Parke's Route near ZM parallel, being No. 1, pp. 9-20, pll., of report pub- 

 lished in the vii. voL of thw series; Hebrmank's, (2), on Birds of William- 

 son's Routes in California near 35(7i and 32d parallels, being No. 2, pp. 29-80, 

 pll., of Part IV of report published in the v. vol. of the series. The dis- 

 continuous pagination of this vol. X, and the fact that the " Parts " which 

 appear to refer to it really refer to portions of previous vols., render it 

 impossible to cite these articles except by reference to the routes by 

 name, or to the printer's signatures at bottom of the pages. 

 Vol. XII, 1860. Book II. Part III, No. 3, Chaps. I, II. pp. 140-290, pll. 

 Cooper & Sdgkley's, on Birds of Governor Stevens's Route near 47fA and 

 A^th parallels.

Separate reissue, v. t p., with new title-page, of pp. xvii-lvi of the author's 

 main work. Besides the list of 7c8 spp., with habitats, these sheets contain a 

 tahlo of the high( r groups, list of extrallmital species (23) which are included in 

 the work, and of those (31) claiming to be North American, but not so identified, 

 and a summary of the total number as variously given by "Wilson, Bonaparte, 

 and Audubon. The species being all numbered, the brochure was much used 

 for several years for practically convenient reference to the species by number.
