Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Natural History and Classification of Birds, Vol. 1
We have said that birds are the butterflies of the vertebrated animals, not merely in the figurative imagery of poetry, but in the sober language of science. This analogy will be at once apparent, on comparing the circle of the animal kingdom with that of the vertebrated animals.
