Corrections made to printed original.
Page xvii, entry 1674. In "et Bourbon", the original ampersand in the title of the French work was incongruously expanded to "and" in the present work. So also in the same title on Pages 3 & 64, an on page xviii, entry 1773, in "et sur les hommes".
Page xvii, entry 1707:--"Compagnons", printed as "Compagnos" in original.
Page xviii, entry 1782 at "aux iles orientales":--"aux", printed as "aus" in original.
Page xix, entry 1830 (also on p. 184 and Plate 28). "Coturnix novaezealandiae" retained as printed, but the correct spelling is "novaezelandiae" as printed in the species heading.
Page xx, entry 1861:--"1861", printed as "1681" in original.
Page xx, entry 1868 (Millies):--"Verhandelingen", printed as "Verhandlingen" in original.
Page xxv, entry 1896 (Hartlaub) in "Ein Beitrag":--"Ein", printed as "En" in original.
Page xxv, entry 1902 (Henshaw):--first occurence of "Hawaiian" printed as "Hawaian" in original.
Page 3, in "Dauphine ou Madagascar":--"ou", printed as "on" in original.
Page 15, in "disappeared from Warekauri":--"disappeared", printed as "disapppeared" in original.
Page 64, in "identified by himself with the Mascarine Parrot":--"Mascarine", printed as "Marcarine" in original.
Page 74. "13½ inches = 345 mm": this seems the most likely intention of the erroneous conversion "13½ inches = 365 mm" of the original.
Page 112-3, table. Width at distal extremity "13.5" printed "0135". Four other entries similarly.
Page 144, date for "Porphyrio melanotus var. alba":--"1844", printed as "1144" in original.
Page 167, authors for "Columba migratoria":--"Audubon", printed as "Andubon" in original.
Page 188, in "cervical vertebrae":--"cervical", printed as "cervicle" in original.
Page 191, in "profile of the inner condyle":--"condyle", printed as "cordyle" in original.
Page 215. "228 mm. = 8.9 inches": this seems the most likely intention of the erroneous conversion "228 mm. = 9.9 inches" of the original.
Page 216, in "24 to 24.1":--"24.1", printed as "21-1" in original.
Page 217, synonymy of "Pachyornis pygmaeus":--"Euryapteryx", printed as "Euryapterxy" in original.
