II. PROPOSED CHANGES IN NOMENCLATURE NOT 



ADOPTED. 



Cyclorrhynchus vs. Phaleris {cf. Grant, Cat. Birds Brit. 

 Mus., XXVI, 1898, 607). The type of Phaleris, by 

 elimination, is Alca pygnuea Gmelin, hence no change is 

 necessary. 



37. Stercorarius parasiticus vs. S cepp/ius, and 



38. Stercorarius longicaudus vs. 5. parasiticus {cf. Roths- 

 child & Hartert, Novit. Zool., 1902, 413). In the opinion 

 of the Committee the proposed changes are undesirable. 



123a, 123/>. Phalacrocorax pelagicus robustus et resplen- 



dens \'s. P. pelagicus, and 



124. Phalacrocorax urile vs. P. bicristatus {cf. Grant, Cat. 

 Bds. Brit. Mus., XXVI, 1898, 361, 358), A change in these 

 cases appears to be unwarranted. 



151. Clangula clangula vs. C. glaucion {cf Godman, Biol. 

 Cent.-Am., Aves, III, 1902, 225). As Clangula has page 

 precedence over glaucion no change is necessary. 



Charitonetta vs. Clangula. {Cf. Godman, Biol. Cent.- 

 Am., Aves, III, 1902, 226). As Charitonetta seems fairly 

 entitled to generic recognition, no change seems advisable.
