208 Proposed Changes in the A. O. U. Check-List. L April 



Glaucidium hoskinsi Brewster becomes Glaucidium gnoma hos- 

 kinsii Brewster. (Cf. Ridgway, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 50, pt. VI, 

 1914, p. 788.) 

 fCoccyzus minor nesiotes (Cabanis and Heine). Coccygus nesiotes 

 Cabanis and Heine, Mus. Hein., IV, Heft 1, November, 1862, p. 78, 

 footnote (Greater Antilles and Florida). Recorded from Florida. 

 {Cf. Ridgway, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 50, pt. VII, May 5, 1916, 

 p. 27.) 

 fSphyrapicus thyroideus nataliae (Malherbe). Picus natalice Mal- 

 herbe, Journ. f. Ornith., II, No. 8, March, 1854, p. 171 (Mexico). 

 Revived as a subspecies. (Cf. Swarth, Condor, XIX, No. 2, March 

 15, 1917, p. 63). Range: Montana to Arizona, wintering south to 

 Jalisco, Mexico. 

 fCenturus uropygialis brewsteri Ridgway, Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., 

 XXIV, Feb. 24, 1911, p. 32 (Santiago, southern Lower California). 

 Recognized as a subspecies. (Cf. Ridgway, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., 

 No. 50, pt. VI, 1914, p. 96). Range: southern Lower California. 

 Colaptes rufipileus Ridgway becomes Colaptes cafer rufipileus 

 Ridgway. (Cf. Ridgway, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 50, pt. VI, 

 1914, p. 37.) 

 Chordeiles virginianus (Gmelin) becomes Chordeiles minor (Forster) 

 (Caprimulgus minor Forster, Cat. Anim. North Amer., 1771, p. 13; 

 Virginia) , since the latter has the same basis and is of earlier date. (Cf. 

 Richmond, The Auk, XXXIV, No. 1, Jan. 1917, p. 88.) The North 

 American races of Chordeiles virginianus therefore will stand as follows : 

 Chordeiles minor minor (Forster). 

 Chordeiles minor hesperis Grinnell. 

 Chordeiles minor sennetti Coues. 

 Chordeiles minor howelli Oberholser. 

 Chordeiles minor henry i Cassin. 

 Chordeiles minor aserriensis Cherrie. 

 Chordeiles minor chapmani Coues. 

 fMyiarchus crinitus residuus Howe, Contrib. North Amer. Ornith., 

 I, May 21, 1902, p. 30 (Istokpoga Lake, Florida). Reinstated as a 

 subspecies. (Cf. Oberholser, The Auk, XXXIV, No. 2, April, 1917, 

 pp. 194—195.) Range: peninsula of Florida. 

 Aphelocoma woodhouseii (Baird) becomes Aphelocoma californica 

 woodhouseii (Baird), because of intergradation with Aphelocoma 

 californica texana. (Cf. Oberholser, Condor, XIX, No. 3, June 1, 

 1917, p. 94.) 

 Aphelocoma texana Ridgway becomes Aphelocoma californica 

 texana Ridgway, because of intergradation with neighboring forms. 

 (Cf. Oberholser, Condor, XIX, No. 3, June 1, 1917, p. 94). 

 fAphelocoma californica immanis Grinnell, The Auk, XVIII, No. 2, 

 April, 1901, p. 188 (9fcio, Willamette Valley, Oregon). Recognized 

 as the subspecies breeding in northern California and western Oregon. 

 (Cf. Oberholser, Condor, XIX, No. 3, June 1, 1917, pp. 94-95.)
