Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of the Genera of Birds: With Their Synonyma, and an Indication of the Typical Species of Each Genus The basis of the impartial nomenclature which I wish to adopt and establish among Naturalists, is the same that was employed by the late Mr. Vigors in drawing up his list of genera, and one which Mr. Swainson terms the inflexible law of priority. It has the merit, says Mr. Strickland, of being the only one which is just, as it preserves and honours the terms employed by original discoverers in preference to those introduced by later critics; and it also has the advantage of reminding us of the date at which any species was discovered or group defined. This law may, however, cause the use - as Mr. Strickland also remarks - of words which are certainly barbarous in their formation and devoid of euphony; but the adop tion of the first word given must occasion the employment of a much more correct nomenclature than one with the words selected for their superior euphony of sound or applicability of meaning. If systems were established on this latter rule, they must inevitably vary with the tastes and caprices of men. But my object is not to criticise the words which by this law of priority ought to be employed, but strictly to exemplify the mode in which the species of birds have been from time to time divided into genera by different writers since the first edition of the Systema Naturae in 1735 and at the same time to indicate as far as possible those genera which are synonymous with others that had been pre viously proposed, and thus to give to Ornithologists a correct systematic list of the numerous names employed. This has been a work of patient and laborious research, undertaken in the hope that it might be the means of the establishment of a uniform and permanent language, to quote again the words of Mr. Strickland, among Naturalists of all nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of the Genera of Birds: With an Indication of the Typical Species of Each Genus, Compiled From Various Sources So far has this desire of introducing new names been carried, that many Ornithologists are in the constant habit of changing ge neric names, even when accompanied by characters, if the slightest modification is made in the circumscription of the group to which they are applied, or even if the characters do not tally with their own idea of sufficiency. Thus, an author will not hesitate to state, that he cannot adopt the genera of certain Ornithologists, because they are not what he is disposed to consider natural divisions; he therefore proposes his own divisions, and designates them by his own names. But it is curious in such cases to compare the natu ral with the unnatural divisions; and to observe, in the great majority of instances, how nearly they coincide with each other. The inutility, or worse, of coining new generic names in such cases is obvious to all except the coiner himself, who may perhaps fancy that he is increasing the stock of knowledge, while he is only overloading the memory with synonymous terms. Such uncalled for changes must necessarily prove detrimental to the progress of science, the advancement of which is supposed to be aimed at by every systematist, although too many of them are apt to forget this true end, and to think only of the means of elevating them selves at the expense of their predecessors and of the unhappy student, who becomes bewildered in the choice among so many different systems, each carefully shrouded in the veil of its own no menclature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive dictionary of the meaning and derivation of scientific bird names. Many scientific bird names describe a bird's habits, habitat, distribution or a plumage feature, while others are named after their discoverers or in honour of prominent ornithologists. This extraordinary work of reference lists the generic and specific name for almost every species of bird in the world and gives its meaning and derivation. In the case of eponyms brief biographical details are provided for each of the personalities commemorated in the scientific names. This fascinating book is an outstanding source of information which will both educate and inform, and may even help to understand birds better.
