B.  Cory.  Special  edition  printed  for  the  Field  Colum-

The  last  publication  in  the  list,  as  may  be  gathered  from  the 
description,  was  not  an  issue  in  the  regular  Ornithological  series 
of  the  Museum,  but  its  author  being  a  member  of  the  Museum 
staff,  the  Institution  made  arrangements  with  him  to  provide  its 
correspondents  and  subscribers  with  the  publication.  No  changes 
have  been  made  in  the  system  of  distributing  these  papers,  but 
an  index  book  has  been  added  for  ready  reference  containing  the 
names  of  individuals  and  institutions  on  the  mailing  list.  The  follow- 
ing table  presents  a  record  of  the  disposition  of  the  publications  by 
series  :
