HYPOTHETICAL LIST. 371 
Known only from the type specimen, taken on Long Island, New 
York, in May, 1833, and still extant in the National Museum. ‘The 
status of the species is in doubt. 
Pisobia ruficollis (PALLAS). Eastern Least Stint. [241.1.] 
Trynga ruficollis Pauuas, Reise Russ. Reichs, III, 1776, 700. (Kulus- 
sutai, Siberia.) 
The record of occurrence of this species at Nome, Alaska (Condor, 
XI, 1909, 173) has been questioned, and the only other North 
American record (Condor, XII, 1910, 44) is too indefinite to be satis- 
factory. 
Numénius arquétus (LinN-eus). European Curlew. [11.1.] 
Scolopax arquata Linnaus, Syst. Nat., ed. 10, I, 1758, 145. (Sweden.) 
The evidence of its capture on Long Island, New York, is not con- 
sidered satisfactory. 
Totanus tétanus (LiINN©us). Common Redshank. [11.2.] 
Scolopax totanus LINNEUs, Syst. Nat., ed. 10, I, 1758, 145. (Sweden.) 
The Hudson Bay record (Fauna Bor.-Am., Il, 1831, 391), the 
only North American record for the species, is too vague to be taken 
as conclusive evidence. 
Famity CATHARTID. 
GENUS SARCORAMPHUS DvuMenriL. 
Sarcoramphus Dumérit, Zool. Analytique, 1806, 32. Type, by subs. 
desig., Vultur papa Linnaaus (Vigors, 1825). 
Sarcorémphus pd4pa (LiNN«us). King Vulture. [12.] 
Vultur papa Linnznus, Syst. Nat., ed. 10, I, 1758, 86. (Mexico?) 
The record of its supposed occurrence in Arizona (Cougs, Bull. 
Nutt. Orn. Club, VI, 1881, p. 248) remains unconfirmed.
