SECOND APPENDIX. 



Man. N. A. Birds, 1887, p. 591. It is said 

 to be " similar to P. hudsonicus, but much 

 grayer above, sides of neck purer ash-gray, 

 sides much paler rusty, and throat clear 

 slate-black instead of sooty blackish." As 

 only three specimens were known, the char- 

 acters adduced may not be confirmed when 

 larger series from the same locality show 

 how great may be the range of individual 

 variation in shades of coloration.

 tana, Ridgway, Pr. U. S. Nat. Mus., July, 

 1882, p. 114, is recognized as a valid sub-

 dentalism Ridgway, Pr. U. S. Nat. Mus., July,

 to be darker and more rusty in general cast 

 of plumage, with the lateral lower parts more 

 or less strongly tinged with brownish, the 

 supercilliary stripe browner, and the wing- 

 markings buffy. 



No. 67 a, p. 276. Catherpes mexicanus

No. 75 bis, p. 278. Add: Troglodytes 

 domesticus aztecus. Aztkc House-When. 

 (T. aUdon «s/ecwi-,Baird, Kev. Am. Birds, 1864,

 AVren which has usually been called " Park- 

 man's Wren." It occurs from Illinois west- 

 ward and south into Mexico, but not on the 

 Pacific coast of the United States, where it 

 is replaced by 2\ d. parkmani. The descrip- 

 tion of the latter in the Key includes aztecus. 

 See Allen, Auk, April, 1888, p. 164. 



No. SO, p. 279. This subspecies of Marsh 

 Wren, admitted with a query in the Key, is

No. 141 a, p. 310. Geothhjpis trichas ignota. 

 is described by Chapman, Auk, Jan. 1890, 

 p. 11, from Florida and Georgia, as like 

 G. trichas, but with longer tarsus, tail, and 

 bill, shorter first primary, and deeper colora- 

 tion. This local race is admitted by the 

 Committee. 



The G. trichas roscoe revived by Has- 

 brouck, Auk, April, 1889, p. 167, is rejected 

 by the Committee, on the ground that 

 " Sylvia " roscoe of Audubon is a mere syn- 

 onym of G. trichas, and that what Mr. Has- 

 brouck called G. t. roscoe should be G. t. 

 ignota.
