Abstract
IN this portion of his great undertaking, Captain Shelley commences with the genus Promerops and concludes with the pipits, so that he is still far from coming to the end of the Passerines. In the seven exquisite coloured plates with which it is illustrated, Mr. H. Gronvold fully maintains the high standard of their predecessors, and the text is as full and complete as in the earlier parts.
