PREFACE. 
 
 "XTHLLIAM ELFORD LEACH, the author of this Pamphlet, 
 wrote it when he occupied the position of Keeper of the 
 Zoological Department of the British Museum. Though not 
 positively stated to be the case, it seems evident, from the 
 manner in which the names of the several specimens are arranged 
 in this Catalogue, that it was intended to be cut up and used 
 to label the collection of Mammals and Birds then in the British 
 Museum. This would account in some measure for the rarity 
 of the tract, comparatively few copies probably having been 
 printed, and of these a number destroyed. It is also a question 
 if it was ever actually published in the ordinary sense, for though 
 the printer's name is given at the foot of the title page, no 
 Publisher's is mentioned. Regarding the many new specific names 
 proposed by Leach in this Catalogue, I believe that hardly any are 
 now in use, older ones having, in most cases, been found for the 
 mammals and birds to which they were applied. 
 
 Fifteen new generic names were proposed for Birds, as 
 
 follows : 
 
 lerax = Accipiter, Brisson (1760). 
 
 Triorches = Pandion, Savigny (1801). 
 
 Mecistura. 
 
 Calamophilus = Panurus, Koch (1816). 
 
 Vitiflora = Saxicola, Bechstein (1802). 
 
 Spipola = Anthus, Bechstein (1805). 
 
 Melizophilus. 
 
 Fedoa = CEdicnemus, Temminck (1815). 
 
 Squatarola. 
 
 Pavoncella. 
 
 Macrorhamphus. 
 
 Gallinago. 
 
 Zapornia = Porzana, Vieillot (1816). 
 
 Moris = Sula. 
 
 Utamania = Alca, Linnaeus (1766). 
 
Of these Mecistura has been used by many writers for Parus 
 caudatus, so also has Melizophilus for Sylvia undata, Squatarola 
 for Charadrius helveticus, Macrorhamphus for Scolopax griseus, 
 and Gallinago for Scolopax gallinago, &c. Pavoncella is equiva- 
 lent to Machetes, Cuv. and antedates it by one year, but the 
 former name has hardly ever been used, whereas the latter has 
 been generally adopted. 
 
 As will be seen by reference to the text, none of these names 
 were introduced with any description whatever, and for this 
 reason, if for no other, they fail to meet the requirements of 
 the British Association Rules, which demand that a generic name 
 to pass current should be accompanied by a clear exposition of 
 the essential characters of the genus. This disposes of Pavon- 
 cella, but Mecistura, Melizophilus, Squatarola, Macrorhamphus, 
 and Gallinago may be employed in virtue of their subsequent 
 adoption by later writers. 
 
 The only copy of this Catalogue that I have seen is in a 
 volume of Pamphlets in the Zoological Department of the British 
 Museum, and from it this reprint has been taken. The chief 
 value of the latter is rather of a negative character, as shewing 
 the worthlessness of the Tract, and that far higher consideration 
 has been set upon it by writers on European birds than it at all 
 merits.

In the following List each specimen is marked with 
 the name of the person from whom it was either received 
 or purchased, and of the place where it was taken. In the 
 MS. catalogue attached to the collection of British Zoology, 
 the donor's name is recorded, and the localities are more 
 particularly mentioned. 
 
 Any species, sex, or accidental variety that is not 
 enumerated in this Catalogue will be an acquisition to the 
 collection, and the name of the donor will be constantly 
 registered.

 ERRATA. 
 
 Since the List was printed off it has been discovered that the Solitary Stare 
 (page 1 8, the Solitary Thrush of Montagu) is merely the young of the 
 Common Stare.
