This division of the Order of Grallatoria? is composed of a single genus, which is very remarkable for the singular struc- ture of its beak, and the disproportionate length of the legs and neck. (P'ate 5. Fig 11. ) 64. Flamingos, Phcenicopterns, are large birds that stand high on their legs ; they have palmate feet, an extremely long, slender neck, a small head, the upper mandible flat, and suddenly bent down at its middle to be applied over the lower mandible which is oval, and longitudinally ...hollowed into a semi-cylindrical canal ; the edges of both mandibles are furnished with very delicate little transverse plates like those of ducks, and their tongue is thick and fleshy. They live on shell fish, insects, and the eggs of fishes, which they obtain by means of their long neck, and by bending down the head, to use the hook of the upper mandible to advantage.
65. The most common species is spread over the eastern con- tinent, as far as the fortieth degree of north latitude. Numerous troops are seen every year on the southern shores of France, and sometimes they ascend as far as the river Rhine The Red Flamingo, Plicenicopterna rnber, is from three to four feet high, of a purple red on the back, and rose coloured wings.
