* This list does not iuclude American species ■wrongly supposed by antLors to be the same as Euro- 

 pean species, and so named, e.g. Circus "cyaneus" for C. bvdnonius, Megulus "cHstatus " for it. satrapa, 

 Troglodytes "parvulus" or T. "europceus" for T. hyemalis, etc., etc., but only those which were tbrongh 

 actual error (as it appears) wrongly attributed to North America. Species which are most likely to 

 have occurred iu North America are printed in small capitals; those whose occurrence would in any 

 case be purely accidental are printed in italics.
