Abstract

ABOUT a year ago I stated in your columns (May 18, 1905, p. 64) that I was trying to have experiments carried out with the object of ascertaining whether the olfactory sense of the kiwi is perceptibly developed, as one would suppose it to be from certain structural peculiarities in which the bird is unique, viz. the great relative size of the olfactory lobes of the brain and the great size of the olfactory capsule as seen in the skull.
