Excerpt from Report Upon Natural History Collections Made in Alaska Between the Years 1877 and 1881, Vol. 3: Arctic Series of Publications Issued in Connection With the Signal Service, U. S. Army It seems proper to add a. Brief statement of the manner in which the volume has been pre pared and my own connection with it. Upon' his return from Alaska in 1881, Mr. Nelson at Once began work upon the ornithological portion of the present volume, intending later to take up reports upon his collections of Mammals and Fishes. The ornithological report was well advanced towards completion when failing health, directly traceable to exposure in the North, compelled an abrupt cessation of labor and an imme diate departure-of Mr. Nelson for the West, where he has Since resided. Meantime the entire subject of the nomenclature of North American Birds has been revised, and a check list issued by the American Ornithological Union. In addition a number of reports upon, and partial lists of, Alaska birds have been issued. It thus seemed very desirable that Mr. Nelson's report upon Alaskan birds, covering, as was intended, the whole territory, should be revised and brought up to date.
