Abstract
IN the second volume of the Linnean Society's Journal of Proceedings, published in 1858, will be found an article by Mr. Sclater on the Birds of New Guinea, which gives in a few pages a summary of the then existing state of our acquaintance with this subject. The bulky quarto now before us, to be followed by three or four other similar volumes, is no bad evidence of the vast mass of additions that has been made to our knowledge of the Papuan avifauna since that period.
