Thns, as the earliest date of Gmeliu's Tart I. yet traced, us aliove, is July "Jo, 

 1788, both Forster's names must be accepted on the grounds of absolute priority. 

 Consequeutly — 



Chionis Forster, Enchiridion p. 37, 1788 (before March 27) 



must be resumed instead of Vaginalis Gmclin, 1780 (before Ainil 20), 

 but— 



Callai'u.H Forster, Kncliiriilion p. 35, 1788 (earliest notiec Jlarcli 27) 



will rei>lace illaucojiix Gmeliu, .S//.v/. .\(xt. Xlllth Ed. Part 1. [i. 303, 

 1788 (earliest notice July 2.")). 



I would like to jjoiiit out that Maci-orlniiiplias Forster (»Siy/i. Cat. Brit. IMrda 

 p. 22, r^l7) ajipears to be invalidated by the prior use of the same name bj' 

 G. Fischer in the Zoognoisia i. p. 91 (1813). 



Limnodromux Neuwied (1833) seems to be the next name to use. 



Gallirallas Lafresnaye, Rcc. Zool. iv. p. 243 (1841), must be used for the 

 Woodhens of Xcw Zealand, the well-known Oci/dronas liaving been used by 

 Schelleuberg {Ilelcet. Eiitomol. vol. ii. p. 1(3, 18U(5) twenty-four years i)rior to 

 A\'agler"s use. (I liave been asked to include this note by Mr. Tom Iredale.) 



Micropsitta Lesson, Traiti; d''Orii. p. 640 (1831) 



replaces Xaaiterna Wagler, AbliawH. Ak. Wisscnscli. MiciiclteH i. 

 p. 498 (1832). 

 Aratinga Spix, Av. Bras. i. p. 29 (1824) 



replaces (\>ii>ir'i$ Knhl, Mon. Psitt. p. 4, 1820 (not proposed 

 generically). 



The reasons for these changes 1 have given when dealing with Solcnoglossus 

 liauzani.
