avifauna, and notes of the species observed during the autlior^s 
short visit to that island.

A reprint from the ^Bulletin de PAcademie Imperiale des 
Naturalistes de Moscou^ for 1860 (p. 1). Some observations 
are added by tlie author^s father. Professor Alexander von 
Nordmann. Two hundred and fifty-three species are enume- 
rated; but one of the most remarkalile of the birds of Northern 
Lapland, Limicola pygmcna {Trinya platijrhyncha, Temm.), is 
not included. The interior of Finland seems not yet thoroughly 
explored. This paper, however, gives by far the most complete list 
of the avifauna of the country that has hitherto appeared. To 
it is prefixed a catalogue of former publications on the same 
subject. {Cf. abis,^ 1861, pp'. 109-111.)

The booty obtained by Herr Zelebor, though not inconsider- 
able as to quantity, was of far greater importance in the quality 
of the specimens, which consisted for the most part of very inter- 
esting species. Extracts from Herr Zelebor^s letters written 
from different places in the course of his journey are printed in 
the Vienna ^ Jagd-Zeitung ^ for 1864, pp. 40-46, 357, 358, and 
390-392. ( Cf. abis,^ 1865, p. 225.)

Two hundred and sixty-eight species are enumerated as having 
been found in the island of Sardinia. Of these, two hundred 
and fifty-one are common to the present work and that of Sig. 
Cara, though Sig. Salvadori has failed in being able to prove the
