Abstract (AI)
a brief note in The Auk on A Peculiar Character Referable to the Base of the Skull in Pandion [v. 8, nO. 2, p. 236-37]. Another character in the skeleton of the Osprey was also noticed in an article published in Tlie Ibis in July 1894, entitled On Cases of Complete Fibulae in- Existing Birds [Lond. v. 6, no. 23,. During the next following three years I printed two or three other papers on the Falconidae, ibut none of these had anything to do with the osteology of the family.
Key Findings
1
Another skeletal character in the Osprey involved cases of complete fibulae in an existing bird, reported in The Ibis in 1894.
2
The author subsequently published several papers on Falconidae, but these did not address the family’s osteology.
3
The text notes a peculiar character at the base of the skull in Pandion, reported in The Auk.
