APPENDIX. 397 



Hartert in the Hand-list of British Birds uses 

 Hydrobates Boie, 1822, but it seems fo be perilously 

 close to Hydrobata of Vieiilot, 1816, and may be 

 rejected on that account. 



Genus OCEANODROMA. Type by original designation : 

 O.furcata (Gmel.). 



Genus OCEANITES. Type by monotypy : 0. wilsoni (Bp.) 

 = 0. oceanicus (Kuhl). 



Genus PELAGODROMA. Type by original designation : 

 P. marina (Lath.). 



Genus PUFFINUS. Type by tautonymy : P pnffimts Briss. 

 = P. puffinus (Briinn.). 



Puffinus puffinus. Briinnich's name, proposed in 1764, ante- 

 dates Temminclv's P. anglorum, 1820, by many years. 



Puffinus gravis. O'Reilly's name, dating from 1818, ante- 

 dates Faber's P. major 1822, used in the former 

 edition of the List, by four years. 



Puffinns baroli. The Little Madeiran Shearwater has suffered 

 badly at the hands of nomenclators ; neither Procel- 

 laria obscura of Gmelin nor P. assimilis of Gould refers 

 to the eastern Atlantic race of this species, and both 

 Allen (Auk, 1908, p. 339) and Rothschild & Hartert 

 (Bull. B. 0. C. xxvii. 1911, p. 43) have given it 

 additional new names. Mathews (' Birds of Australia,' 

 ii. 1912, p. 54) has disentangled the synonymy, and has 

 clearly shown that Bonaparte's name is the correct one. 



Genus DAPTION. Type by original designation : D. capense 

 (Linn.). 



Genus FULMARUS. Type by subsequent designation of 

 Gray (Cat. Gen. Subgen. Bds. 1855, p. 129) : F. gla- 

 ciaUs (Linn.).
