Wallace, A. E-. The Geographical Distribution of Animals, with a 
Study of the Relations of Living and Extinct Faunas as elucidat- 
ing the past Changes of the Earth’s Surface. London ; 1876, 2 vols. 
8 VO, pp. 503 and 607. 
The class Aves supplies a large proportion of the material investigated 
in this work, and the distribution of birds entering into the subjects is 
examined under the following heads : — (Part i.) The principles and 
general phenomena of animals. (Part ii.) On the distribution of extinct 
animals. (Part iii.) Zoological geography : a review of the chief forms 
of life in the several regions and sub-regions, with the indications they 
afford of geographical mutations. (Part iv.) Geographical zoology : a 
systematic sketch of the chief families of land animals in their geogra- 
phical relations. The book itself is full of details most carefully 
elaborated, and is doubtless destined to be the standard work on the 
subject for some time to come.
