152 A GLOSSARY OF GREEK BIRDS 



riYrAPrOI {continued). 

 and Wimmer take the three birds to be different species of Wagtail 

 (Motacilld). The name more strongly suggests to me the Dipper, 

 Cinclus aquaticus, L., (Mod. Gk. vepoKoo-o-v<pos, Heldr.): but all three 

 birds are quite doubtful.

 a kind of Pigeon.

Arist. H. A. viii. 3, 592 b opvis o-KoaXrjKcxpdyos. Sundevall, op. c, p. 1 1 1,

 Heldreich quotes the same word as the name for the Bullfinch in 

 Mod. Gk.
