Colinus virginianus. THE VIRGINIAN QUAIL or 

 BOB-WHITE. 



Tetrao virginianus Linnaius, Syst. Nat. 1758, p. 161 : 

 Carolina. 



Ortyx virginianus (Linn.) ; B. O. U. List, 1st eel. 1883, p. 143 ;

The Bob-White was first introduced and turned down 

 in Norfolk by the Earl of Leicester early in the last century, 

 and has frequently been imported since. It has no claim to 

 be included as a British bird. 



The typical race of the Bob-White inhabits the eastern 

 half of North America from South Dakota and Ontario 

 south to Texas and northern Florida. *
