39. Sylvicola Blackburnia. Wilson iii. pi. 23. f. 3. 



40. citrinella. Wilson ii. pi. 15. f. 5. 



41. Jlavicollis. Wilson ii. pi. 13. f. 6. 



42. inornata. 



Above olive green, beneath white ; sides of the head, ears, 

 and throat cinereous; wings with two pale yellow bands. 



This, and all the foregoing species, were collected near Vera 

 Cruz, and seem to be young birds. 



G. Vermivora. W'ilson. Swains, in Zool. Journ. No. 10. 



43. Vermivora solitaria. Wilson ii. pi. 15. f. 4. 



Inhabits with the last. 



44. Vireo olivacea. Siv. Wilson ii. pi. 12. f. 2. 



FaM. pRINGILLIDiE. 



45. Alauda cornuta. Wilson i. pi. 5. f. 4. 



To continue the specific nanrie of Alpestris to a bird which, 

 as Wilson affirms, is only seen upon sandy plains, is a mani- 

 fest absurdity. I have, therefore, adopted the altei-ation 

 which that accurate observer himself has suggested.

 ruginous; wings and lateral tail feathers (in one sex) with
