Genus ACANTHIS. Type by subsequent designation of 

 Stejneger (Auk, i. 1884, p. 145) : A. linaria. This 

 name dates from 1797 and is far older than Linota Bp.> 

 1838. 



Acanthis linaria cabaret. Miiller's name, Fringilla cabaret^ 

 1776, antedates Linaria rufescens Vieillot, 181G. 



Genus PYRRHULA. Type by tautonymy : P. pyrrliula 

 (Linn.). 



Pyrrhula pyrrhula pileata. In the 1st edition of the List 

 only one Bullfinch was recognised. The resident 

 Bullfinch of the British Islands is easily distinguished 

 from that of Sweden (P. p. pyrrlaila) by its smaller 

 size and less brilliant coloration. From the Bullfinch 

 of central and western Europe (P. p. europa>a) the 

 British form is less clearly separable, but the female 

 of the British form has a darker brown back and 

 a darker and browner under surface (<;/. Hartert, Brit. 

 Birds, ii. 1908, p. 130). 



Genus CARPODACUS. Type by subsequent designation of 

 Gray (Oat. Gen. Subgen. Bds. 1855, p. 81) : C. ery- 

 thrinus (Pall.). 



Genus PINICOLA. Type by monotypy : P. enucleator 

 (Linn.) 



Genus LOXIA. Type by Linnean tautonymy and by sub- 

 sequent designation of Gray (List Gen. Bds. 1st ed. 

 1840, p. 49) : L. curvirostra Linn. 



Genus EIOERIZA. Type by Linnean tautonymy and by 

 subsequent designation of Gray (List Gen. Bds. 1st ed. 

 1840, p. 47) : E. dtrinella Linn. 



Emberiza calandra. Linnaeus named the Corn-Bunting in 

 1758. In the 12th edition (1766) of his Syst. Nat. he 

 changed the name to E. miliaria. Under the rules the 

 first name must stand.
