Description

Drawing depicting: 1) Oreopyra cinereicauda; 2) Ciconia alba; Ciconia alba

Note

Drawings on tissue, 1) a later version of Gould 2155; see Notes to Gould 2155; 2) fine sketch of head of Stork, with colored bill. See also Gould 2157. It is intriguing that the drawing which was published in 1871 can be seen by the overlapping strokes to have been made before the drawing which was reworked and published in 1885.
