	The Returen of the Arab Courier
		At the age of 60, Verreaux designed this extraordinary exhibit for the Paris Exposition of 1867, where it was awarded a gold medal.
		His Arab Courier is widely regarded as "the most ambitious attempt of its day"1 and "represents one of the earliest achievements in the development of the group concept of animal exhibition."2 It inspired highly theatrical exhibits by other European taxidermists who also depicted the age-old struggles between beasts, or between beasts and humans.
		Jules Verreaux, despite the now-antiquated taxidermic methods and materials at his disposal, managed to impart an extraordinarily lifelike quality to his work.

	Zoological Citation Notes -- V
		Edward Dickinson indicates that Verreaux in an 1871 paper cited this name to 1870.
		The paper comprising the original description was undoubtedly written by Jules and Edouard Verreaux, although they cite Bourcier as authority fo the name, probaby from the label of the type.
		Although there is no doubt that Bourcier planned to honor Edouard Verreaux by naming this bird for him, I see no way he can be credited even as part author since he had no connection with the original publication.
