Struthio m. is down near the bottom of page 148. A more readable version from October 1883 journal which cites the September 16, newspaper.

Almost exactly three years ago I mentioned this same newspaper and Laurent wrote:
This is almost a copy-paste of the Norddeutsche allgemeine Zeitung text, except for the deletion of a digression about a new Zebra that had reached Paris earlier in a similar way, and the addition of the ref. to "Sonntagsb. d. Norddeutch. Allg. Zeitung, Nr. 37, vom 16. Sept. 1883." towards the end, which confirms that the latter is senior. Looks OK to me.)
