After a cu'cnimstantial ac(;ount of the genus considered iudividually, tlie species are taken 

 up in order. L.rosetis.p. 249; L. ba^yrinchus [siic— leifebathyrhyiichiis\,xi. 2o3: L. argenteiis, 

 p. 204 (renamed from aryentatus) \ L. arcticus, p. 268 (^= argentatus Sabine); L. glacialis, p. 

 '270'( — glaucus Temm.), spp. nn. These and .some other species are very elaborately treated. 

 monographicaUy, excepting the first, ■which is (mly named "provisionally " (the name rosetis, 

 by the way, afterward excited some acrimonious personality, as anticipating rossii of Kich- 

 ardson). The paper looks as if it were but a part of the article, but it is not marked to be con- 

 tinued, and no more has been found. It is one of the soundest papers ever writteu on Gulls.
