Notwithstanding the objections we have urged to some of 
Dr. Hartert’s practices in nomenclature, there can be no 
doubt that the 4 Birds of the Palaearctic Fauna 3 is a most 
important work, and should be carefully referred to by all

History. October 1909 to August 1910.] 
A few ornithological articles are included in these numbers. 
In October 1909 Mr. N. H. Foster continues his observations 
on the weights of birds’ eggs in a fresh condition; in 
November Major Barrett-IIamilton has a note on a supposed 
eyry of the Goshawk in Ireland; while in January and 
February 1910 Mr. D. C. Campbell writes an account of the 
birds of Inch and Upper Lough Swilly, which contains a con¬ 
siderable amount of interesting matter. The introduction 
of a few more articles on Birds in this Magazine would be of 
advantage to Irish Ornithology, and increase our knowledge 
of local distribution.
