Sp. 2. L. RUFA.* Brisson. 



* Bewick confuses the two British Godwits. In his description of L. Rnfa, he men- 

 tions L. Melanura, in its summer plumage, as a variety of his Red Godwit. His cut of 

 the Red Godwit, however, is evidently taken from a specimen of L. Rufa, the tail being 

 of a uniform black.
