* Cf. The Auk, Vol, III, July, 1886, p. 334. 



t Many of the specimens inclining toward V. c. Jlavescens Ridgw. (Man. N. Am. 

 B., 1887, p. 476), but none of them typical of that form. 



X Most of these more yellowish than typical crassirostris. 



^Cf. Man. N. Am. B., 1887, p. 476. Mr. Cory, in the revised edition of his 'Birds 

 of the Bahama Islands," considers V. c. Jlavescens \.o he Si synonym oi his V. allcni. 

 Of the latter (from Grand Cayman, an island on the southern side of western Cuba), 

 I have seen but a single example, and this cannot be at all nearly matched in a series 

 of nearly 40 specimens of Jlavescens. Should, however, a series of specimens 

 from Grand Cayman show that V. allcni and V. crassirostris Jlavescens are practi- 

 cally the same, then V. approximans Ridgw. (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., Vol. VII, 1884, 

 p. 179), from the island of Old Providence, in the Caribbean Sea, would also have to 

 be considered identical, and therefore on account of its priority that name would have 

 to be used for the yellow race of V. crassirostris instead of V. alleni.
