Rind Jn à. 598 
HEN my deícsiptiod and figure of this bird were commu- 
nicated to the Linnean Society, and which they thought 
proper to publifh in the firft volume of their T'ranfa&ions, I thought 
it, on the authority of. Meffts. Pennant and Latham, a diftin& 
Ípecies, and a new difcovery asa Britih. bird but, having fince 
been favoured by Mr. Lathag) with fome letters on the fubje&, | 
and alfo. a dried fpecimen of tlie JTringa ocropus (a bird that I had. 
not feen. before], at.the 777nga g/areola 
is a mere variety of that bird; for according to my y recollection o£ 
the bird; and on comparing the 77yzga ocropus with. my. defcription. 
and. figure, they appear to agree Xery nearly in fize and dimen- 
fions, the principal difference confifting in the colour of the 
plumage on fome parts, which may probably : be occafioned. only 
by difference of fex or age. |
