Systematic Position of Zeledonia coronata. 



11 



Zeledonia would be reckoned, by those who follow this 

 system, as one of the 9-primaried Passeres, since only the 

 merest vestige of the 10th remex remains (text-fig. 3, p. 6). 



On the other hand, in Cossypha (text-fig. 5) and Saxicola 



Text-fig. 5. 



Portion of the primary region of the wing of Cossypha, to shew the 

 great length of the 10th primary. 



Text-tiff. 6. 



Portion of the wing of Saxicola, to shew the relatively large 

 10th primary. 



(text-fig. 6), and in Cisticola, one o£ the Sylviidse — which 

 group, I hope to be able to shew, is also to be reckoned 

 among the allies of the Thrushes, — the 10th remex is a 

 relatively long feather.
