British Birds, and with any of them forms a comprehensive account of the Ornithology 
of Europe. In addition to the personal ability of the Author for his task, he has had

‘Dr. Brcc fa favouraWy known to omitliologfata by numerous contributions to our zoological 
poriodioafa, in all of which there is found the same genial spirit, and the same tone of good 
feeling, kiudiiness, and reverence, which peiw.ade the present work. . . . The figures are, for 
the most part, highly satisfactory, and leave us in wonder how they could be produced, iu 
combmution with the full and copious text, for so small a price.’ — Atheiiwum.

‘Spcakmg of entomology, we should place Mr, Morris’ “History of British Moths” at the bead. 
It ^ves a coloured figure of every known Bn'tfab moth, together with dates of appearance, 
localities, description, and food of caterpUlar. It forms a liimdaomo work for a library, aud will, 
wc should hope, lead many to commence the fascinating study of outomology.’ — T/ie Record. 
‘We can easily imagine that the annonucciiioit of the publication of a “Natural History of 
British Moths” will awaken a strong desire iu many of our readers to become poaso-ssed of so 
desirable a treatise. There are prob.ably some thousands, especially among the younger iiortion 
of our population, who pay a little attention to eiitomoiogy, and of tiiese by far the greater 
number devote their energies to the study of the huttei’flie.s and moths, the two great groups of 
insects forming the order Lepidoptera of entomologiats. To these, if we may judge from the 
recoUoctions of our own early feelings, no present could be more welcome than a good “Natural 
History of British Moths.” ^ The illustrations are exceedingly numerous, occupying no fewer 
than 132 plates, and including a figure of every species, and in some cases of the principal 
varieties. The figures are generally exceedingly well executed and life-like; they arc all coloured, 
aud will doubtless afford great assistance to many a collector in naming his captures .’ — The 
Spectator.
