Notes

"... it was proposed that a figure should be given of each species described in the 'Birds of Jamaica.' It was subsequently judged desirable to modify this plan ...The plates, however, had been already numbered in agreement with the order in which the species are treated in the work above-named; and this order could not be changed: they are recommended to be arranged, when bound, as they are enumerated in the following table, the numbers being still successive, though not continuous."--P. [3].

Page references on plates refer to Gosse's Birds of Jamaica, published in 1847.

Plates are hand-colored.
