220 Messrs. G. M. Mathews and Totn Iredale : 



the genus itself must necessarily share the fate of the species 

 on which it was founded." With this dictum we agree and 

 would note that in rejecting Penguinus, recourse cannot be 

 had to Cdtarracles (ex Brisson), as that genus is absolutely 

 coequal with Penguinus. The next name is Eudyptes Vieillot, 

 which was introduced with two sections, and the second of 

 these was designated as type by Gray in 1840 : the first 

 section ])eing equal to Spheniscus. We liave therefore to 

 revert to the familiar Eudyptes for the Crested Penguins.
