Contains a list of 160 titles of papers contributed to the study of Avian anatomy 
and taxonomy by the author. 
A complete list of his writings occurs in the e 4 Medical Review of Reviews,” Vol. XXVI., 
Nos. 1-9, 1920, covering 1565 titles up to June 1920. Now over 1,600 titles. 
Since when many have been added, a series even appearing in the Emu, which show 
that apparently little of value can be gained from a study of the bones when a direct 
suggestion is not given by the superficial details. The huge mass of detail may' be 
valuable later for comparison when more basic work has been completed, and all 
Shufeldt’s papers should be consulted, especially his Essays on Classification which., 
however, have been published in most unlikely places.
