364 BRITISH BIRDS. [vol. vi. 



I would consider that research in that locality might dis- 

 cover an Iceland breeding-race that was separable from 

 the British, in which case Reinhardt's name might be re- 

 stricted to the former and Dr. Lowe's name revived for 

 the latter. In the meanwhile Reinhardt's name must be 

 used as above noted. 



It only remains to acknowledge the extreme courtesy 

 of Herr H. Winge in forwarding the type for inspection 

 and for his kindly criticism of my conclusions in 

 correspondence, and to thank Herr Henrik Gronvold 

 for his aid in studying the original description of 

 Reinhardt and Herr Winge 's remarks in the Consfecius 

 Faunce Orcenlandicce.
