Lafresnaye and D'Orbigny. 



The types of the species usually credited to the above authors 

 are generally admitted to be the specimens in the Boston Society 

 of Natural History contained in the Lafresnaye collection. 



There are, however, specimens of many of them in the Academy 

 collection, which were originally in D'Orbigny' s collection, and 

 subsequently in that of Prince Massena, Due of Rivoli. These 

 were regarded by Cassin as types, and while they probably have 

 not as good a claim as those in the Boston Society they are in any 

 case paratypes, and are valued accordingly. 



Such specimens as are clearly labeled " D'Orbigny' s Collection " 

 are the following, though there are doubtless others among the 

 Rivoli specimens: 

 13,508. Columbigallina cruziana (d'Orb.). "Zacua No. 17, d'Orblgny." 



6.998. Dendrornis. Chiquitos. d'Orbigny.

Massena and Sonance. 



Apparently Prince Massena continued to collect specimens of the 

 Psittacidce after the disposal of his main collection to Dr. Wilson, 

 as in the Revue et Magasin de Zoologie for 1854, p. 71, there is a 

 paper under the joint authorship of Massena and Sonance^^ in 



"'^ Though both names appear as authors, Massena is given as authority for 

 all the species.
