Baird described this race from "an extensive series . . . from Cape St. 

 Lucas," but only three specimens still in the collection can be considered 

 certain cotypes. Of these, No. 13013 was long ago set aside by Richmond 

 as the type, evidently because it is a male and in good condition ; it is, how- 

 ever, but one of three (or more) cotypes. No. 13012 would also be a cotype; 

 it was sent in February 1860 to A. D. Bache, and its present whereabouts is 

 unknown.
