THE BIRDS OF AUSTRALIA. 
This is reprinted under the same title in the Isis, 1818, Litt. Anzeiger, col. 1,103, 
et seq., but in the latter all the names are nomina nuda , while Richmond wrote me 
that Psittacus scapularis had a reference in the original tract.

This is the well-known and commonly quoted Catalogue from which the genus name 
Sphenura has been generally cited. 
Sterna, bergii , S. infuscata, Cuculus prionurus. 
There is a reprint of part of this in the Isis, 1828, cols. 117-136. (The note in the 
A.A.R., and also given by Sherborn, that this was reprinted without change in 1835 
was due to a misunderstanding.) 
There is also a rare Preis-Verzeichniss of 1830, reprinted in Journ. fur Orn., 1863., 
pp. 54, 60. 
Verzeichniss von Saugethieren und Vogeln welche im Zoologischen Museum zu Berlin 
zu den beigesetzten Preisen verkauft werden, 8vo, Berlin, pref. Dec. 1834, 1835. 
List of names, localities and prices only, names often accompanied by n., but mostly 
previously described. Nothing of interest to Australian ornithologists in it. 
Verzeichniss einer Sammlung von Neuhollandischer Naturalien welche am 6ten 
April, 1S37. Auction (as in 1822 tract), 8vo, Berlin, (pref. Dec. 1836) 1837. 
Sale of a collection made by J. Lhotsky on a Journey from Sydney to the Australian 
Alps in New South Wales. 
Names only, nothing new in birds, but the miscellanea includes part of a proposed 
work by Lhotsky (q.v.).

nebst einer Kafer-Sammlung, welche am 14ten Marz, 1842. Auction. 8vo,

This differs from the other little tracts in that the new species are described in Latin 
in the text, but nothing relative to Australian ornithology occurs.

zoological objects. Born 1707, died 1778. Many accounts of his life have been published,

with Humming Birds. A new life by Dr. B. D. Jackson has just been issued.
