A compilation, chiefly adapted, as it seems, as an educational 
manual. The species included by the author are 539 in num- 
ber, those occurring in the district to which ,the work has par- 
ticular reference being described at some length. Many of the 
errors of Temminck and other older authors are perpetuated.

About 270 species have occurred in Cornwall ; and specimens 
of the greater number are in the author^s collection.

Nothing of importance (except the occurrence for the first 
time in the islands of Machetes puynax) is recorded in these 
papers, which are a continuation of the series before noticed 
(Zool. Rec. hi. p. 52).

Only common species mentioned, and some of these by names 
apparently of the author's invention.

A translation, by Mr. II. E. Dresser, of a very interesting 
paper, published at Stockholm some years ago (Q^fvers. K. Vet.- 
Ak. Forh. 1861, pp. 67-90) by the author, who resided for 
many years on the Varanger Fjord in north-eastern Norway. It 
is the best account of the ornithology of the district, which is 
in some respects very peculiar, as the observations extend over 
a far longer time than those of HH. Malm (Krdyer’s Nat. 
Tidsskr. 2nd ser. i. pp. 180-212) and Schrader (Journ. fiir Orn. 
1853, pp. 240-260, 305-326), and are free from some errors 
whereby these last were disfigured. The number of species 
enumerated is 140 (to most of which their Lapp names are ap- 
pended), and Prof. Sundevall adds two more species in a sup- 
plementary note.
