TYPK SPECIMENS OF BIRDS 411 



Harporhynchus longirostris sennetti Ridgway 

 Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus. 10: 506, Aug. 6, 1888. 

 =Toxostoma longirostre sennetti (Ridgway). See A.O.U., Checklist of 

 North American birds, ed. 4, p. 252, 1931. 



112298. Adult male. Lomita Ranch, Hidalgo County, Texas. Apr. 12, 

 1878. Collected by George B. Sennett. Original number 2504. Re- 

 ceived from George B. Sennett. 



112299. Adult male. Lomita Ranch, Hidalgo County, Texas. 1879. 

 Collected by George B. Sennett. Original number 2517. Received 

 from George B. Sennett. 



Ridgway based this race upon a series of nineteen adult cotypes from 

 "southern Texas," an unknown number of which were lent for his study 

 by Sennett. Ten adults that presumably lay before Ridgway are still in 

 Washington, but it seems to me advisable to consider here only the three 

 specimens from the subsequently restricted type locality, one of which, 

 No. 112296, is not now to be found in the collection. It is probable that 

 other topotypical cotypes will be found in the American Museum of Natural 

 History. 

 Ilarporhyiic'ius goJtatiss Ridgway 



Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington 3: 21 [p. 1 of extra], Feb. 26, 1885. 

 =Toxostoma guttatum (Ridgway). See Hellmayr, Catalogue of birds of 



the Americas 7: 296, 1934. 

 102454. Adult male. Cozumel Island, Caribbean Sea off the eastern coast 

 of the State of Yucatan. Mexico. Jan. 23, 1885. Collected by James 

 E. Benedict and Thomas Lee. Received from the U.S. Fish Commission. 

 Karporhyiichus cinereus Xantus 



Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia 11: 298 (not earlier than Nov. 29), 

 1859. 

 =^Toxostoma cinereum cinereum (Xantus). See Hellmayr, Catalogue of 



birds of the Americas 7: 297, 1934. 

 12957. Adult male. Cape San Lucas, State of Baja California, Mexico. 



May 1859. Collected by John Xantus. Original number 496. 

 12960. Adult female. Cape San Lucas, State of Baja California, Mexico. 



May 1859. Collected by John Xantus. Original number 521. 

 13038. Immature (sex not indicated). Cape San Lucas, State of Baja 

 California, Mexico. June 1859. Collected by John Xantus. Original 

 number 769. 

 Xantus named this thrasher after a first "sojourn of several months at 

 Cape St. Lucas," and any of his specimens taken between Apr. 20, 1859 

 (when he began work there) and July 14, 1859, may probably be considered 

 cotypes. The final date is derived from the fact that the first of his ship- 

 ments from Cape San Lucas, received in Washington not later than Oct. 22, 

 1859, and accompanied by his unpublished manuscript, contained no 

 material taken later than July 14.
