THIS little Plover was first described and named by Dr. 

 Latham, in the second supplementary volume to his General 

 Synopsis of Birds, page 316, from specimens sent him by 

 Dr. Boys, which were killed at Sandwich in Kent in the 

 year 1787 and 1791, and this species has several times 

 since been obtained from the same locality. Mr. George
