Alavda albignlaris Brehm, Isis, 1841. pp. 137. 152 {Ragusa and Klagenfurth).

The type specimen and another from Turkey in the Brehm Collection are 

 A. a. caniarella, while the one from Klagenfurth and another from Renthendorf (!) 

 are Alauda arvensis arvensis. It can hardly be said that the description is charac- 

 teristic for cantarella. 



88. Alauda tenuirostris Brehm = Alauda arvensis arvensis. 



Alavda tenuirostris Brehm, Isis, 1841. pp. 137. 153 (BrinnLs near Leipzig breeding, near Renthendorf 

 on passage). 



. Type : ? Brinnis bei Leipzig, 24. v. 1835. C. L. Brehm coll. 

 . , This specimen specially mentioned. 



89. Certhilauda meridionalis A. E. Brehm = Alaemon alaudipes alaudipes. 



Certhitauda meridiotwiis A. E. Brehm. Journ. j. Orn. 1854. p. 77 (" Niir in der Provinz Dongola in 

 Nubien "). 



Type: S ad., Dongola, 12. ix. 1857. A. E. Brehm leg. 



Brehm correctly separated the Nubian form from the greyish Alaemon alau- 

 dipes desertorum (" Certhilauda desertorum " of Brehm, which inhabits the islands 

 and coasts of the Red Sea, north to desert between Cairo and Suez, where Brehm 

 collected several specimens, and to South Arabia ; but he was not aware that 

 the Saharan form had already been described by Desfontaines in 1787, and that 

 also Lichtenstein's name bifasciata referred to the isabelline race, and not to the 

 greyish desertorum ; the latter seems to extend throughout the Sahara, from the 

 Atlantic coast at Rio de Oro to Nubia. 



90. Phileremos rufescens Brehm = Eremophila alpestris alpestris. 



Phileremos rufescens Brehm. Vogdjan/], p. 122 (185.5 — " Nordamerik.i "). 



Type : " <J hieme, Nordamerika." 



This specimen agrees very well with Brehm' s short diagnosis, in which he 

 referred to the real differences between the American and European Shorelarks.
