Abstract
IF Mr. R. Bowdler Sharpe considers that, having published a description of the new Teal from Kerguelen's Land, he has done all that is necessary in relation to the collection of birds made by Mr. Eaton in that distant island, he will, I fear, find but few persons to agree with him. Most of his brother naturalists will side with me that our American friends have shown much greater energy in getting out a complete account of the ornithology of this interesting island at an early date than Mr. Sharpe in issuing a short notice of the single undescribed species.
