 linensis. 



737. Parus [= Penthestes] sclateri vs. P. palusfris sdaieri. 



739. Parus [= Penthestes] cinctus alascensis vs. P. c. obtcctiis. 

 (Cf. Hartert, Vogel pal. Fauna, III, 1905, 376, 366.) A

Psalfriparus minhmis saturates Ridgway, Bull. U. S. Nat. INIus., 

 No. 50, Pt. Ill, 1904, 434. Not admitted, the Commitee being 

 unable to find any tangible differences between the proposed new 

 form and minimus. 



7-iZb. Psaltriparus minimus grindae vs. P. grinder (cf. Ridgway, 

 Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 50, Pt. Ili, 1904, 436). There 

 appear to be no valid reasons for altering the status of this 

 form.

 The characters of this proposed form appear to be too indefinite 

 for recognition by name.

 Ridgway, Bull. U. S. Nat. I\Ius., No. 50, Pt. IV, 1907, 134.)

 Again rejected, as indistinguishable from S. sialis. (Cf. Auk, 

 1899, 131.)
