We look forward with great anxiety to the completion of this 
great work (which we believe we may shortly expect); and we 
hope that Mr. Gould in his introduction will not only give us 
a simple, understandable arrangement of this difficult group, but 
also some structural characters for the recognition of the multi¬ 
tude of genera into which it is now divided, and which appear 
to be still increasing, three new generic terms having been pub¬ 
lished in these last two parts. 
The Tenth Part of f The Birds of Asia’ contains figures of 
9. Palseornis derbianus. 
10 . „ malaccensis. 
11 . „ affinis. 
12. Tesia cyaneiventris. 
13. „ castaneo-coronata. 
14. Accentor atrigularis. 
15. „ altaicus. 
16. Merula unicolor. 
Of these, Ceriornis caboti, Pyrrhula aurantia, and Palceornis 
affinis are all new and most interesting additions to the respect¬ 
ive groups to which they belong. Accentor huttoni and A. varie- 
gatus of the Himalayas have been judiciously united to the 
Siberian A. atrigularis and A. altaicus respectively, and, as it 
seems to us, upon satisfactory evidence. The latter bird is nearly 
1. Phasianus mongolicus. 
2. Ceriornis caboti. 
3 Pyrrhula aurantia. 
4. Parus cinereus. 
5. „ minor. 
6 . „ monticolus.
