The plan I have followed in this work has been to sift and arrange the facts I have gathered concerning the habits of the animals best known to me preserving those only which in my judgment appeared worth recording.

It is seldom an easy matter to give a suitable name to a book of this description. I am conscious that the one I have made choice of displays a lack of originality also that this kind of title has been used hitherto for works constructed more or less on the plan of the famous Naturalist on the Amazons. After I have made this apology the reader on his part will readily admit that in treating of the Natural History of a district so well known and often described as the southern portion of La Plata which has a temperate climate and where nature is neither exuberant nor grand a personal narrative would have seemed superfluous.

Sclater is part author. As I have not gone over any of the subjects dealt with in that work bird-life has not received
