THE BIRDS OF AUSTRALIA. 
The earliest Magazine of Natural History was edited by Loudon, 
the first part being published on May I, 1828, and this appeared every 
two months. This was continued under the editorship of Charlesworth, 
when Jardme began an opposition Mag. Zool. Bot., which took the field 
and survived under the above name. 
Annals Paris Museum. Sherbom, in the Annals Mag. Nat. Hist., 
Ser. 8, Vol. XIII., March 1914, p. 365, has collated with great difficulty 
this pubhcation as well as the Memoires Paris Mus. 
Annals Sci. Nat. Paris. The dates of this periodical are generally 
accepted as given in the press, but I am doubtful of the accuracy of all. 
Auk. The organ of the American Ornithologists’ Union, which appears 
quarterly, Jan., April, July and October, and has borne this name since 
1883, when it succeeded the Bulletin of the NuttaU Ornithological Club, 
founded eight years previously. As far as I know it has appeared 
regularly, as instance, Jan. 1917, issued Jan. 2 ; April 1917, issued March 31 ; 
and July 1917, June 30. 
Austral Avian Record. Issued irregularly in connection with the 
Austral Avian Museum, Foulis Court, Fair Oak, Hants, England. The dates 
of pubhcation are as foUows :
