Family of the Hornbills
By Daniel Giraud Elliot, 1835-1915
Daniel Giraud Elliot (1835-1915) published A Monograph of the Bucerotidae, or Family of the Hornbills between 1877 and 1882, the first monograph of this family: 60 lithographed plates, 57 of them hand-coloured after John Gerrard Keulemans and three uncoloured by Joseph Smit.
Plate 44, Anorrhinus austeni, is listed in the contents but was never drawn, as no specimen could be obtained.
