[Chap. VIII. 



tents is mainly due to the untiring energy and exertions 

 of my friend, Mr. E. L. Layard. Nearly every bird in 

 the list has fallen by his gun ; so that the most ample 

 facilities have been thus provided, not only for extend- 

 ing the limited amount of knowledge which formerly 

 existed on this branch of the zoology of the island ; but 

 for correcting, by actual comparison with recent speci- 

 mens, the errors which had previously prevailed as to 

 imperfectly described species. The whole of Mr. 

 Layard's fine collection is at present in England.
