PALMER AND W. L. McATEE. The published papers of Dr. Albert Kenrick Fisher cover a period of half a century from October, 1875, to January, 1925. A fitting opportunity for the issue of a list of his publications, as a contribution to American ornithology, is afforded on the oc-casion of his 70th birthday, March 21, 1926. While these papers are concerned chiefly with birds and mammals they extend also to other subjects. Dr. Fisher's principal works comprise a comprehensive treat-ise on Hawks and Owls, a report on the Birds of the Death Valley Expedition, both published in 1893, several important papers on economic ornithology, and three memorial addresses: on Thomas Mcllwraith, Lyman Belding, and Walter Bradford Barrows, presented before the American Ornithologists' Union. His minor contributions fall naturally into four groups: Geo-graphic distribution of species, economic zoology, biographical notes, and reviews. The following list comprises 150 titles. 1875 Oporornis formosus breeding in Eastern New York. <Am. Nat., IX, No. 10, p. 573, Oct., 1875. 1876 Small Birds [Chrysomitris tristis and Dendroeca coronata] caught by the Burdock. <Am. Nat., X, No. 4, pp. 239-240, Apr., 1876.
