Pages 240 and 241. The decisions of the A. O. U. Committee on numerous 

 proposed changes in the standing of our Juncos were not published until after 

 the first edition of the Color Key appeared. One new form (No. 567h) has 

 been added to those therein given, one (/. o. shufeldti) has been omitted and the 

 following changes have been made in nomenclature: 



No. 568. Junco mearnsi, becomes No. 567g, Junco hyemalis mearnsi, and the 

 Range of this form is now given as "Rocky Mountain region. Breeds from 

 southwestern Saskatchewan to southern Idaho and northern Wyoming and 

 Colorado to southern Arizona, southern New Mexico, and northeastern Sonora" 

 (A. O. U.). 



No. 567.1 Junco montanus becomes No. 567f. Junco hyemalis montanus. 



No. 571.1 Junco townsendi, becomes No. 567i. Junco hyemalis townsendi. 



No. 569 Junco caniceps, becomes No. 570b. Junco phceonotus caniceps. 



No. 570a. Junco dorsalis, becomes Junco phwonotus dorsalis. 



No. 567a. Junco oreganus, becomes Junco hyemalis oreganus. 



No. 567c. Junco oreganus thurberi, becomes Junco hyemalis thurberL 



No. 567d. Junco oreganus pinosus, becomes Junco hyemalis pinosus. 



The common name of all the preceding species remain unchanged. 



No. 567b. Coues's Junco (Junco oreganus connectens) becomes Shufeldt's 

 Junco (Junco hyemalis connectens), and this form also includes /. o. shufeldti of 

 the 'Color Key,' which is therefore cancelled. The Range of 567b. thus stands 

 as follows: 



"Rocky Mountain region. Breeds from the coast of southern British Columbia 

 east to west central Alberta and south to northern Oregon; winters over exit: 

 Rocky Mountain tableland to eastern Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, western 

 Texas, Chihuahua, and Sonora; casual in northern Lower California" (A. O. U.).
