twelve^ belonging to CypselidcBy Trochiliclce (not procured by 
Natterer), Bendrocolaptidcs (7)^ and Troglody tides (3), one of 
the latter being the type of a new genus. An Itinerary of Nat- 
terer^s ten journeys, with a list showing the geographical distri- 
bution of each species throughout the six Faunas into which 
the author divides the Brazilian Empire, conclude the publi- 
cation. 
NattereFs labours certainly deserved some such recognition as 
this ; and Herr von Pelzeln, by completing the work, will confer 
a great benefit on ornithologists. The map does not seem to 
have been drawn with special reference to NattereFs wander- 
ings, and some of the most important places at which he col- 
lected are omitted from it. \_Cf. Zeitschr. ges. Naturwissensch.

Twenty- three species are enumerated, but none are new. A 
new genus of MomotideSy however, is founded, and Pheucticus 
tibialis (Zool. Rec. iv. p. 107) is figured. \_Cf, Ibis, 1869,

Forty-four species, of which examples were collected in the 
district by Dr. Cunningham (videsupray p. 54), are enumerated, 
with a short preliminary sketch of the labours of former inves- 
tigators in the same quarter. A complete list of the Patago- 
nian Passer es is also given, showing which are common to Chili 
and which to La Plata, the Avhole proving that Patagonia belongs 
to the same zoological province as Chili. None of the species 
enumerated are new ; but one specimen of a female Dafila is 
left undetermined.
