Excerpt from The Ibis, 1860, Vol. 2: A Magazine of General Ornithology
The names of these gentlemen will be found following the list of ordinary members.

Had it not been for the liberal assistance, both of pencil and pocket, thus kindly exercised towards us, it would have been impossible to have exceeded the number of plates originally contemplated to be given with each part.
