Culicivora Sw., Zool. Journ. 1827, type Muscicapa stenura Temm., also em1)racL-s J/, ccerulea 

 "Wils., thus including birds of difierent families. Cabanis separated them, lightlj', but left 

 Culicivora for M. ccerulea, proposing Hapalura for Jf. stenura. But Hapalura is thus strictly 

 synonymous with Culicivora, and a new name is required for the genus of which ccerulea is 

 typical. Hence Polioptila, g. n., p. 11. — The author treats of four spp. of the genus, PP. cceru- 

 lea, dumicola, Uucogastra, and bilineata.

The bird which had been described by SundevaU as Aegifhalus flaviceps (Foglar fr-an Xord- 

 ostra Afrita, Of vers. K. Yet. Ac. Forh., vii, 1850, p. 129) is here referred to the genus Ps(d- 

 tria; and the Conirostrum ornatum of Lawience (Ann. Lye. N. T., v, 1851, p. 112. pi. ."), f. 1) is 

 shown to be synonymous therewith.
