> The full title of this tract is: Lettre adress6e au nom de la Society Imp^riale des Naturalistes de Moscou, 

 ftl'un de ses membrcs M. lo Docteur Clir6tien-Henrl Pander, par Gotthelf Fischer de Waldheim, directeur 

 de la societ*^; Contenant une Notice sur un nouveau genre d'Oiseau et sur plusieurs nouveaux Inscctes. 

 Moscou, MDCCCXXI. 8° Pp. 1-15. (Introduction dated "Moscou, le 17 Decembre 1821.") 



* In Bericht iiber den V. Intern. Orn.-Kongress, "1910," p. 1108, Berlepsch says the type is Pipilo mys- 

 tacalis Taczanowski. 



•The species mentioned are "Polachio cajennensis, icterops, Cotinga foetida," without citation oi 

 authority or other means of identification. Assuming " Cotinga" foetida to be equivalent to Gracula 

 foetid^ Linnaeus, I have designated it as the type, thereby reducing Polachio to a synonym of Gymnoderus 

 Ccoffroy, 1809. 



* Bonaparte (Conspectus Gen. Avium, vol. 2, 1857, p. 225) cites " Pulocondora, Reich." as a synonym 

 of Rissa. See also Bonaparte, Naumannia, 1854, p. 217. 



* Falco eleonoTX Gen6 is also included in this genus.
