PI. 92. Procellaria hsesitata {nee Kuhl), Forst., Descr. Anim., 

 p. 208 (1844 : Lat. 48° S. Pacific Ocean) ; Gould, B. 

 Austr., vii., pi. 47. 

 = Priofinus cinereus (Gm.) ; Salvin, Cat. B., xxv., p. 390. 

 Latham (Gen. Syn., iii., pt. 2, p. 405, 1785) founded his 

 description of his " Cinereous Petrel " on a specimen in the 

 British Museum. From his description of the colours of the 

 bill and feet, it is evident that he had also Forster's Drawings 

 in his mind. 



PL 93. Procellaria fuUginosa, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 23 

 (1844: Southern Ocean). 

 = CEstrelata macroptera (Smith) ; cf. Salvin, Cat. B., xxv., 

 p. 453. 

 PI. 93a. Head of Ossifraga gigantea. 

 PI. 94. Procellaria fuliginosa, Forst. (nee pl. 93). 



= Puffinus griseus (Gm.) ; cf. Salvin, Cat. B., xxv., p. 386. 

 The type of Latham's " Grey Petrel " (unde Procellaria grisea, 

 Gm.) was in the Leverian Museum. 



PI. 95. Procellaria antarctica, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 60 

 (1844 : Antarctic Seas). 

 = ThalasscBca antartica (Gm.) ; cf. Salvin, Cat. B., xxv., 

 p. 392. 

 PI. 96. Procellaria capensis, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 20 

 (1844 : Southern Ocean). 

 = Daption capensis (Linn.) ; cf. Salvin, Cat. B., xxv., p. 428. 

 PI. 97. Procellaria gularis. 



This plate represents a Flying Petrel, and it has been referred 

 to Procellaria hsesitafa by Kuhl and Temminck. The type of the 

 latter species was purchased by Temminck from Bullock's sale, 

 and was described by Kuhl : it is now in the Leyden Museum. 

 This is the well-known " Capped Petrel," but Forster's plate 

 represents CEstrelata gularis, of Peale, 1848 : cf. Salvin, Cat. B., 

 xxv., p. 414. It seems to me also that Procellaria inexpectata, 

 of Forster (Descr., p. 204), refers to this Plate 97, in which case 

 the species would bear the name of CEstrelata inexpectata (Forster, 

 1844). 



PI. 98. Procellaria leucocephala, Forster, Descr. Anim., p. 206 

 (1844). 

 = CEstrelata lessoni (Garnot) ; cf. Salvin, Cat. B., xxv., 

 p. 401. 

 This drawing is referred to P. hsesitata by Kuhl, but it 

 represents quite a different species.
