TYPE SPECIMENS OF BIRDS 529 



Parula iiigrilora Coues 



in Sennett, Bull. U.S. Geol. and Geogr. Surv. Terr. 4(1): 11, Feb. 5, 

 1878. 

 ^Parula pitiayumi nigrilora (Coues) . See Hellmayr, Catalogue of birds 

 of the Americas 8: 349, 1935; A.O.U. Committee on Classification and 

 Nomenclature, Auk 64: 451, 1947. 



73698. Adult male. Hidalgo, Hidalgo County, Texas. Apr. 20, 1877. 

 Collected by George B. Sennett. Original number 248. 



73699. Adult male. Hidalgo, Hidalgo County, Texas. May 3, 1877. 

 Collected by George B. Sennett. Original number 343. 



73700. Adult male. Hidalgo, Hidalgo County, Texas. May 8, 1877. 

 Collected by George B. Sennett. Original number 396. 



This race was based upon five adult males, two of which were doubtless 

 returned to Sennett and are presumably now in the American Museum of 

 Natural History. 



No. 73698 carries no fewer than four labels, each of which proclaims, in 

 the hand of Coues, Ridgway, or Richmond, that it is the type, while no such 

 notation appears on the labels of the two others. Its having been elevated 

 by Coues above its fellows is probably connected with the fact that No. 

 73698 alone entered his private collection. 



No. 73700 may once have been similarly marked by Coues, but since it 

 became for a time the property of Robert Ridgway, it now bears only 

 Ridgway-written labels.
