A total of 138 species of the group are recognized of which all but one are figured on excellent hand-colored plates" Zimmer Ayer p. 588. This work was limited to 250 copies only. In the preface Shelley acknowledges the importance of Keuleman's contribution of the fine color plates: "The illustrations which form such an important portion of my Monograph have all been executed by Mr. Keulemans whose name is sufficient guarantee for the accuracy of the details and for high artistic skill. The latter is rendered perhaps more striking from his being acquainted with this family of birds in their native haunts; and his notes upon the sun-birds inhabiting Prince's Island have been incorporated in my work." The sunbirds are small slender passerines from the Old World usually with downward-curved bills. Many are brightly colored often with iridescent feathers particularly in the males. Most sunbirds feed largely on nectar but will also eat insects and spiders modified after Wiki. This monograph describes two new genera and ten new species.
