* This list does not iuclude American species wrongly supposed by authors to be the same as Euro- 

 pean species, and so named, e.g. Circus "cyaneus" for C. hvdsonius, Regulus "cristatus " iov R. satrapa, 

 Troglodytes "parvulus" or T. " enropceus" ior T. hyemalis, etc., etc., but only those which were through 

 actual error (as it appe.ars) wrongly attributed to North America. Species which are most likely to 

 have occurred in North America are printed in small capitals; those whose occurrence would in any 

 case be purely accidental are printed in italics.
