• Bartram's reference is merely "Cygnus ferus, the wild swan," but T^immermann pivcs Linnaeus as 

 the authority for the name, and '' Cygnus ferus" is, Indeed, a sj-nonym of Anas cygnus (Syst. Nat., cd. 10, 

 p. 122). The remainder of Zimmermann "s citation is wrons, as the plate quoted occurs in Seligmann, 

 vol.5, pi. 45 (in the edition examined by mo), and is reproduced from Edwards, plate 150, not from Catcsby. 

 The species is the one now known as Olor cygnus (Linnaeus), type of the genus Olor Wa^lor, 1532. At 

 the moment, it loo'.<s as if the swans were in for a transfer of names, but it is not at all improbable that 

 some binary author has used Cygnus before 1793, and the name may finally rest upon one of the other 

 species. 



*Dipliirnvis would have priority for this ?;cnus, were it not for Ibis T^ac(5p6de, 1799, DiplnccTcus Jerdon, 

 1861, and Psewintantalus Ridgway, 18S3. It is, therefore, stranded on the beach of synonymy— a warning 

 to entomologists who may be tempted to introduco ornithological terms in obscure place-s.
