190016257London: for the Society 1900. FIRST EDITION. Complete with 18 hand-colored lithographed plates of birds by Keulemans 2 hand-colored lithographed maps 4 duo-tone osteological plates and 10 text illustrations. Half morocco with the original blue printed rear wrapper bound in at the end. From the library of Dr. James M. Dolan Jr. curator of the San Diego Zoological Society with his bookplate and blind-stamp on lower blank margin of first leaf. An excellent copy with only very light browning on osteological plates. First edition as issued by the Zoological Society of London. Rothschild with Keulemans’ exquisite plates again outdoes himself. Rothschild was obsessed with the cassowary a giant flightless bird with a colorful neck native to Papua New Guinea and the surrounding islands. He invested huge amounts of money in bringing the species over to England both dead and alive in order to study their habits plumage and behavior. In this monograph Rothschild describes in minute detail all species and subspecies local names measurements distribution bibliography and all other pertinent information such as the anatomical and taxonomic information. Casey Wood refers to it as “a beautifully illustrated treatise†and Anker goes a step further by calling it “an especially profusely illustrated treatise.†The second section deals withâ€the relations of the Casuariidae to the remaining ‘Struthious’ forms and the position of these with regard to the ‘Carinatae’†introduction. Pycraft credits Rothschild for having furnished the bulk of the material for this monograph.<br /> <br /> Rothschild 1868-1937 2nd Baron Rothschild member of one of the world’s wealthiest familes was a British zoologist who became a great collector and founded the Rothschild Natural History Museum in London. The Zoological Society published a number of exquisite ornithological monographs in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century; this one is considered one of the most important as well as magnificent and beautifully illustrated monograph of the period. for the Society unknown
193618218London: Printed for the Society 1936. FIRST PRINTING. With 16 color plates after Frohawk and 7 black & white photographic plates. Original printed front wrappers; an excellent copy. First printing the complete part 6 of Volume XXI of this beautiful monograph on the tree kangaroo with fine colored plates after Frohawk. This was the first comprehensive taxonomy of the species and features fourteen species from New Guinea and surrounding islands as well as Lumholtz’s Tree-Kangaroo and Bennett’s Tree-Kangaroo both from northern Queensland. The exquisite plates apparently none of which were based upon live specimens were executed by the well-known natural history artist Frederick William Frohawk. Dendrolagus includes the tree-kangaroo or kapul which are like Wallabys marsupials adapted for arboreal locomotion. Most tree-kangaroos are considered threatened due to hunting and habitat destruction. The basis of Rothschild’s study here was his own collection now part of the British Natural History Museum.
