1 In mv Catalogue of the Raptores in the Norwich Museum, as well as by some other 

 authors, the genera Pseudogryphus, Bhinogryphxis, and Ccdharista are all included 

 imder the head of Cathartes. In Mr. Eidgway's Notes on the American Vultures, pub- 

 lished subsequently to his proposal of the generic term Rhinogri/phus, he gives it as his 

 opinion that the latter name must give way to the older term Cathartes ; but I am 

 not altogether convinced by his argument, and prefer to retain the generic name of 

 Bhinogryphiis. 



^ Described under the title of Cathartes aura. 



^ Here referred to as " the Yellow-necked Carrion Crow."
