Index of Bird-names. 
I thought it expedient to add a short dictionary to con- 
centrate the names of the birds which occur in this histor- 
ical sketch. The system followed is to give the English name 
first and to add the scientific Graeco-Latin names as well as 
those of the other languages concerned. In doing so I hope 
I shall have rendered some service to those who may in the 
future concern themselves with this question in its internat- 
ional aspects. 
The sources from which I have derived the various names are 
1. For the EngHsh and French names: 
Dresser, H. E.: „A Manual of palaearctic Birds. London, 
1902." 
2. For the German names: 
Naumann: „Naturgeschichte der Vogel Europas". Zweite 
Ausgabe. Bd. 1— XII. Editio Hennicke. 
Brehm, Alfred: „Thierleben." Bd. I— X. 
3. For the Italian names: 
Arrigoni deqli Oddi, conte: „Manuale di Ornithologia 
Italiana. 1904."
