Book excerpt: Excerpt from Protected Native Birds of South Australia Birds' eggs vary considerably in colouration; therefore neither a verbal description nor a coloured representation is likely to hold good' in every case. The fresh unblown egg is always richer in shades of pink; grey, or green than is a blown egg shell, which is sure to fade in course of time. The most striking instances of this are found in the eggs of the Murray Magpie, Pipit, and Reed - Warbler respectively, the eggs of the last-named bird appearing distinctly greyish-green when fresh.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Useful Australian Birds It was a very long time, however, before the many Australian Game Acts were framed to include anything but game birds, which were protected by a close season during the time they were nesting. The value or beauty of insectivorous or harmless birds was not considered; the acts were simply game acts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Australia, Vol. 1 In some cases the meagre accounts of the life-history of species I have dealt with has been commented upon, but what I have written is all that is on record that can be trusted. My book therefore shows how little is known regarding the species already treated, and how much has yet to be learned. When searching the literature this has been especially impressed upon me, as I have found that many accounts printed in Australian books are made up of items relative to extra-australian forms.

Download or read book The Birds of Australia Classic Reprint written by A. H. S. Lucas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Australia This book is the complementary volume to The Animals of Australia, Mammals, Reptiles, and Amphibians, of the same authors and publishers. As it was impossible to give a reasonable account of all the Air - breathing Vertebrates of Australia in one volume, the account of the Birds was reserved for the present work. The object and plan of this, as of the former, book are to serve the needs of the naturalist and to provide matter of interest for the general reader, by giving accurate descriptions and illustrations, and adding as much popular information as is available concerning habits and habitats. In order to avoid rendering the volume too bulky and too heterogeneous in character, we have refrained from specula tions and general disquisitions. It seemed wiser to present the facts in an ordered manner, and to leave for other publications the more general features of our Avi-fauna, relationships, and origins. As in the case of The Animals, while advantage has been taken of personal knowledge, we have drawn largely on other publications on Australian Birds. The classification is that of. Dr. Bowdler Sharpe's Hand-list of Birds, made more readily available by the publication of Mr. Gregory M Mathew's Hand-list of Australian Birds, in The Emu, 1908. We gladly acknowledge our deep indebtedness to the various authors of the magnificent series of Descriptive Catalogues published by the authorities of the British Museum. We have included as nearly a complete account as possible of species described in Australia by Mr. A. J. North, of the Australian Museum, Sydney, and by Messrs. A. J. Campbell, Robert Hall, and others referred to in the text. We have drawn largely for accounts of habits on The Emu, and The Victorian Naturalist, and occasionally quote other periodical publications.

Download or read book A Key to the Birds of Australia written by Robert Hall and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Key to the Birds of Australia: With Their Geographical Distribution The opportunity to publish a "Key to the Birds of Australia" is practically given in the catalogues of the British Museum dealing with the birds of the world, commenced in 1872 and concluded in the present year. The Key, comprising in each case a concise digest of the 770 species of birds found in Australia and Tasmania, is built principally upon these catalogues. Many descriptions are exactly reproduced, others are added to, and a portion is described from the author's collection. The classification is almost wholly that of the British Museum, while the nomenclature is entirely so. Gould's and Ramsay's names appear as synonyms in nearly all cases, and the most important vernaculars of late use are bracketed after each species. The systematic work done by Mr. North, of the Australian Museum, has aided me in the digest of the Accipitres. The geographical distribution of our birds is here placed very much upon the plan of sub-regions defined by Professor Spencer in the "Horn Expedition Report (Zool.)," and it appears to me an appropriate one. I have consulted with advantage Dr. Ramsay's "Geographical Distribution of Australian Birds," in tabular form. The method of locating the birds adopted here differs from that in so far as subregions, and not colonies and towns, are used. The appendix map indicates the Eyrean, Torresian, and Bassian sub-regions, as proposed by Professor Spencer, and these again are divided into nine areas. The Torresian embraces Ramsay's Northern Territory towns and a portion of Carpentaria in 1; a portion of Carpentaria and North Queensland in 2; South Queensland, with the Richmond and Clarence Rivers, in 3. The Bassian sub-region welds the eastern parts of New South Wales and Victoria and Tasmania together - the first two as 4, and the last as 5. The Eyrean sub-region includes Central and Western Australia, and the northern and western parts of Victoria and the interior of New South Wales. Dr. Ramsay unites Victoria with South Australia, but I find that the parts of Victoria and South Australia included in the Eyrean region constitute, so far as the avifauna is concerned, one area, designated 6; Central Australia forms area 7; North-West Australia forms area 8; and Western Australia forms area 9.
