Excerpt from A Hand-List of Genera and Species of Birds of the Indian Empire My idea in bringing it out was not to provide a complete or nearly complete, catalogue of the birds of India worked out to the full extent of my own ability. All I hoped to do was to supply workers, both in the field and the museum, with a very rough catalogue shewing what advance had already been made in dis coveries, nomenclature, etc., since Blanford's time.
