Supposed by Sundevall (op. c. p. 129) to be identical with Lvy^, the 

 Wr^meck, on account of the protrusible tongue; as also by Niphus, 

 in Arist., v. Camus, ii. 383 ; the Wryneck however winters in Greece 

 (Lindermayer p. 41). Belon identified it with the Flamingo, Gesner, 

 followed by Linnaeus, from a confusion with Ger. or Sw. G/zif/, with 

 the Greenshank, in connexion with which latter bird the name survives 

 in modern zoology. Vide s. v. eXa4>is.
