III. AYES. 
INTRODUCTION. 
Perhaps the chief feature of the progress made in Ornithology during 
the year 1902, has been the increase in our knowledge of African birds, 
the works of Professor Reichenow and Captain Shelley having been 
considerably advanced. Some important papers on anatomy and osteology 
have also been published. Mr Charles Chubb, as on former occasions, has 
rendered me very material assistance in the compilation of the present 
Record.
