«Dr. Sharpe has inadvertantly transposed the respective ranges of the present 

 species and C. cristaia. Of C. stelleri he says: "Ilab. Eastern North America, west 

 to the Missouri, northeastern Texas, north to the Red River and Moose Factory 

 {Ridgway)," which is the range assigned to C. crislata by the authors of the History 

 of North American Birds (ii, ji. 273). The range of C. rristala is given by Pr. 

 Sharpe as "North America," whereas it is strictly confined to the Atlantic water- 

 shed of the continent.
