12. ^Mniotilta striata (Gmel.). 



The only specimen I have heard of is one sent in 1853 from 

 Godthaab to the late Mr. Steenberg, who kindly forwarded it to 

 me for determination. 



13. ^Mniotilta parus (Wils.) ? 



The only specimen ever obtained (a young bird shot October 

 16, 1845j at Frederikshaab, and presented to the Royal Mu- 

 seum by Holboll) is in so bad a state that I cannot be positive 

 that I am right in referring it to this species. 



14. ^Mniotilta americana (Linn.). 



A specimen in a very bad state, but quite recognizable, was

15. ^Mniotilta ruhricapilla (Wils.). 



Twice obtained ; a specimen being procured more than twenty-

A specimen was obtained at Fiskensesset in 1846, another at 

 Julianehaab in 1853. Both are in the Royal Museum.

 specimen ever obtained in Greenland until Dr. Walker had the 

 good fortune to obtain another during his few days' stay at 

 Godhavn in August 1857. 



18. Anthus ludovicianus (Gmel.). 



19. "^Anthus pratensis (Linn.). 



Dr. Paulsen, in Sleswick, received a single specimen from 

 Greenland in 1845. I never saw it myself. 



20. ^Turdus iliacus, Linn. 



A specimen was sent to Dr. Paulsen in 1845 ; another was 

 shot at Frederikshaab, October 20, 1845, and presented to the 

 Royal Museum by Captain Holboll. 



21. ^Turdus minor, Gmel. 



I know of one specimen only, obtained in June 1845 at
