28.2 Dr. Sclater on the Distribution of the Genus Turdus, 



bably all or, at any rate, the greater part of these species (except, 

 perhaps, T. ntevius) as winter migrants, and on the western 

 coast T. fiavirostris, while T. pinicola inhabits the pine ridges of 

 Southern Mexico. Three other species {T. infuscatus, grayii, and 

 assimilis), which I have placed under the head of Mexico in my 

 list in the ' Proceedings,^ belong, I believe, to the tierra caliente 

 exclusively, and must be set down to the account of the Neo- 

 tropical region. 



The Thrushes of the Nearctic region may therefore be esti- 

 mated as twelve in number ; viz. — 



If we exclude from the Neotropical region Turdi migratorius, 

 mustelinus, and swainsoni, which are really only intruders from 

 the north, we shall find left about twenty-seven species, distri- 

 buted somewhat as follows : —
