NATURAL SCIENCES OP PHILADELPHIA. 195 



Proc. grisea, p. 419. Unidentified. = that of Gm. and Lath. 



Proc. alba, j>. 419. Mentions under this head the "Norfolk Island Petrel," 

 subsequently named P. Phillippii by G. R. Gray. 



Proc. puffinus, p. 421, = Puff, anglorum. Cites PI. Enl. 962. The " Proc. puf- 

 finus var. Lath. PL Enl. No. 39 " may refer to Puffinus Kuhlii Boie. 



Proc. pacifica, p. 422. " Se trouve en Europe " by error for " Euopoa." 



Proc. sequinozialis, p. 422. Refers as a variety of this species to the " Kurile 

 Petrel " of Latham and Pennant, from Kamtschatca ; a bird now general- 

 ly supposed to be some species of Nectris ; which latter identification re- 

 quires confirmation. 



Proc. leucorhoa, Vieill. p. 422. First designation of the Thalassidroma Leachii 

 Temm. 



Proc. obscura, p. 423. Is this the same as Gmelin's species? This reference 

 to Vieillot should rather be cited for the name of the common small At- 

 lantic Puffinus. 



Heinrich Kuhl, Beit. Zool. u. Vergl. Anat. (1820.) 



In this work there is presented a " Beitriige zur Kenntniss der Procellari- 

 den " which is a very important contribution to the bibliography of the 

 family, marking perhaps the first decided advance over the writers of the 

 eighteenth century. The following species are given in this monograph : 



1. Proc. /areata " L." p. 136. = Oceanodroma furcata Reich. 



2. Proc. oceanica " Banks," p. 136. == Thalassidroma Wilsoni (P. pelagica 

 Wils.) of most ornithologists, now Oceanites oceanica mihi. 



3. Proc. marina " Lath." p. 137. = Pelagodroma fregata Bp. and of my 

 paper ; Pelag. marina Reich. 



4. Proc. Leachii "Temm." p. 137. = P. leucorrhoa Vieill. = Cymochorea 

 leucorrhoa Coues. 



5. Proc. /regatta " Banks," p. 138. = P. grallaria Vieill. nee Licht, (= leu- 

 cogaster Gould.) 



6. Proc. pelagina, p. 139. = P. pelagica Linn. 



7. Proc. glacialis, p. 139. = Fulmarus glacialis Leach. 



8. Proc. capensis, p. 140. = Daption capensis Steph. 



9. Proc. gigantea, p. 140. = Ossifraga gigantea Reich. 



10. Proc.cequinoctialis, p. 141. = Maj'aqueus cequinoclialis Reich. 



11. Proc. hasitata " Porst." p. 142. But not of Forster. Kuhl's hasitata is 

 the same as that of Temminck, PL Col. 416, which is an JEstrelata. 'jEst. 

 diabolica Bp. = JEst. hasitata of my paper.) 



12. Proc. fuliginosa, p. 142. = fuliginosa Forst. nee auct.. = Proc. atlantica 

 Gould. = Pteradroma atlantica Bp. = JEstrelata fuliginosa Mihi. 



13. Proc. desolata, p. 143. = JEstrelata desolata Bp. 



14. Proc. turlur, " Banks," p. 143. I prefer Mr. Gould's identification of 

 this species to that of Dr. Schlegel. See remarks in my paper on Prionem. 



15. Proe. grisea "L." (Gm.) p. 144. Not of Gm. Lath. Examine Dr. Schle- 

 gel's identification of this species ; which I follow. 



16. Proc. ccerulea " Forst." p. 145. The cazrulea of Gmelin, which Forster 

 calls " similis." 



17. Proc. urinatrix "Forst." p. 145. The urinatrix of Gm. now Pelecanoides 

 urinatrix, which Forster calls Proc. tridatyla. 



18. Proc. nivea, p. 145. = Pagodroma nivea Bp. 



19. Proc. antarctica p. 145. = Thalassoica antarctica. 



20. Proc. lugens "Forst." p. 145. Not positively identifiable. Dr. Kuhl 

 1866.]
