152 A GLOSSARY OF GREEK BIRDS 



nVrAPrOI [contimud). 

 and Wimmer take the three birds to be different species of Wagtail 

 {^Moiacilla). The name more strongly suggests to me the Dipper, 

 Ciftcliis aqtiaticus, L., (Mod. Gk. vipoKoa-crvfjios, Heldr.): but all three 

 birds are quite doubtful.

Arist. H. A. viii. 3, 592 b opvis aKa>\r]KO(})ayns. Sundevall, op. c, p. 1 1 1,

 and confined to the mountainous parts of Northern Greece : but 

 Heldreich quotes the same word as the name for the Bullfinch in 

 Mod. Gk.
