Since the completion of the present work the following changes 

 in nomenclature have been adopted by the Committee of the American 

 Ornithologists' Union : 



Page 491. Genus GLAUX Morris again becomes CRYPTOGLAUX 

 Rich., which necessitates the following changes in names 

 of species : 



No. 178. Cryptoglaux funerca ricJiardsoni (Bonap.). 

 No. 179. Cryptoglanx acadicus (Gmel.). 



Page 527. Genus TROCH1LUS Linn, becomes ARCHILOCHUS 

 Reichenbach, and No. 202 becomes Archilochus colubris 

 (Linn.). 

 Page 585. Genus COTURN1CULUS Bonap. becomes AMMODRA- 



MUS Swainson. 

 No. 250 is changed to Ammodramus savannarum australis 



^Maynard. 



Page 586. In changing the name AMMODRAMUS to PASSERHER- 

 BULUS at the last moment before going to press, the 

 author failed to do so in Nos. 251 and 252, which should 

 read : 



No. 251. Passerlicrbidus henslowi (Audubon). 

 No. 252. Passcrherbidus Icconteii (Audubon). 



Page 656, No. 319. Dcndroica blackburnice (Gmel.); this becomes 

 Dcudroica fuse a ( M u 1 1 e r ) .
