This work does not contain much original matter, but is 
chiefly compiled from Scandinavian authorities, and furnishes 
the English reader with a very fair idea of their opinions on the 
various subjects of which it treats. The coloured plates, many 
of which are copies of Korner's Illustrations to Nilsson^s ^Skan- 
dinaviska Foglar,^ give a good series of figures of birds, Tetraor 
nid(S especially.

Though bearing the date of last year on its titlcpage, it is 
impossible to regard this as a recent work. Its author died 
some six years ago, if not more ; and it appears not to have re- 
ceived any fitting supervision since then. The volume includes 
notices of 166 species, one of which (belonging to Sylviidfe) 
appears to be described as new.
