List of the Specimens of Birds. Part Iv: Columbae (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781146235631)

"List of the Specimens of Birds. Part IV: Columbae" is a meticulous catalog detailing a collection of bird specimens. Compiled in 1856 by G. R. Gray, this volume offers a fascinating glimpse into the ornithological knowledge and practices of the mid-19th century. Focusing specifically on the Columbae order (doves and pigeons), the list provides invaluable data for researchers, historians of science, and anyone interested in the evolution of avian classification. This detailed inventory reflects the scientific rigor of the era and serves as a primary source for understanding the biodiversity and taxonomy of birds during that period.
