Abstract
SOME few years since the British Ornithologists' Union appointed a Committee to draw up and publish an authoritative list of the birds of the British Islands. This Committee consisted of the following English ornithologists:—P. L. Sclater (Chairman), Osbert Salvin, F. Du Cane Godman, Henry Seebohm, Howard Saunders, H. E. Dresser, R. Bowdler Sharpe, and H. T. Wharton (Secretary). The Committee held seventy-one meetings, and ultimately a list of British birds was published under the title “A List of British Birds, compiled by a Committee of the British Ornithologists' Union.”
