I have named this species in honour of the Conde de Fernandina, 

 at the express desire of Mr. MacLeay, who had received various 

 marks of attention and assistance in his Zoological pursuits from 

 that nobleman, a resident and extensive proprietor in the Island 

 of Cuba. It is to be observed, that Fernandina was the original 

 Spanish denomination of the Island.
