THE BIRDS OF AUSTRALIA. 
Anim, was posthumously edited by Lichtenstein and published in 1844, 
the preface being dated January. Previously some of these species had 
been published by Wagler in the Syst. Av., 1827, and Isis, 1829. 
Forster, T. Synoptical Catalogue British Birds, dated 1817, but it 
seems doubtful whether it came out in that year, as in the November 
number of the Oentleman's Magazine for 1817, p. 443, it was “ Nearly 
ready for publication.” The same words had been used in the August 
number, and as this periodical came out on the last day of the month 
it was apparently not published before December 1817. It is reviewed 
in the Quart. Journ. Sci., No. IX., p. 196, for Jan. 1818. 
Froriep edited a translation of DumeriFs Anal. Zool., and a journal 
entitled Notizen, which is a work of reference whence dates may be 
approximately gauged. 
Gadow prepared Cat. Birds Brit. Mus., Vols. 8 and 9, which see. 
Galerie des Oiseaux. I have given details as far as known in the 
Austral Avian Record, Vol. II., pt. 7, Jan. 28, 1915.

-400 in 1841 ; pt. vi., pp. 401-496 and pp. i.-xxxxiv., pref. dated 
Oct. 17, 1841, probably early in 1842. 
Gmelin, J. F. Syst. Nat. Hopkinson, in the Proc. Zool. Soc. {Bond.), 
1907, p. 1037, gave dates as follows : 
Pt. I. pp. 1-500 earliest notice July 25, 1788 
n. 501 April 20, 1789 
m. November 20, 1789 
Pt. n. was noted in the Gotting. Anzeig., April 20, 1789, p. 641. 
Gould, J. The Synopsis of the Birds of Australia was pubhshed 
in four parts, the first dated Jan. 1837, the second April 1837, the third 
and fourth April 1838. At the end of the last was included a long series 
of descriptions of new birds communicated to the Zoological Society of 
London in 1837, and which also appeared in their Proceedings, but the 
latter was not published until December 1838. I find the first part 
452
