ABSTRACT THE third part of Mommsen's Griechische Jahreszeiten is devoted to an article upon the birds of the classical land, to our better knowledge of which Herr Mommsen's work is
intended to contribute—an article which will be quite as interesting to naturalists as to the scholars for whom the periodical in question is primarily designed. The memoir is based upon
the notes and observations made during his long residence in Greece and the adjoining parts of the Levant by Dr. Krüper, a naturalist well known to all students of European ornithology for
his accurate and painstaking investigations of the birds of those countries, and especially for his discoveries of the breeding haunts of some of the rarer species. Dr. Krüper's notes
have been further augmented in value by the co-operation of Dr. Hartlaub, of Bremen, one of the first of living ornithologists, who has contributed the references to the previous authorities
upon each species, and a list of the existing memoirs relating to the same subject, besides adding many extracts from former writers to Dr. Krüper's observations. Access through your
