Summary:
Many thanks for letter with approximate numbers of Papuan birds; agrees with Hartert's limitation of the restricted Papuan region - with one exception - the Ké Islands; needs one more figure - number of species of Birds of Paradise omitting the Bower birds but including of course the Epimachids [Epimachiedae]; and number of species of Ké Islands birds that had been added to the Papuan fauna in the list sent.
