80 DR. P. L. SCLATER ON BIRDS FROM JAMAICA. [Feb. 26, 



57. PsEUDOSCOPS GRAMMicus (Gosse). — Ephialtes grammieus, 

 Gosse, B. Jam. p. 19. — Otus grammieus (subgeu. Pseudoscops^, 

 Kaup, Trans. Zool. Soc. iv. p. 231. 



One example of this very distinct Owl, the affinities of which seem 

 to be rather with Otus than with Scops. 



58. Patagicenas carib^a (Linn.) : Bp. Consp. ii. p. 54 ; Gosse, 

 p. 291. 



59. Patagicenas leucocephala (Linn.) : Gosse, p. 299. 



(50. Chlorcenas inornata (Vig.) : Bp. Consp. ii. p. 53. — C. 



ritfina, Gosse, p. 296. 



61. Zenaida leucoptera (Linn.) : Gosse, p. 304. 



62. Zenaida amabilis, Bp. : Gosse, p. 307. 



63. Cham^pelia passerina (Linn.) : Gosse, p. 311. 



64. Geotrygon MONTANA (Limi.) : Gosse, p. 320. 



Mr. Gosse has forwarded examples of all these seven Columbidee, 

 concerning which I have only to remark that, if the continental form 

 of Chamcepelia (usually called passerina) is really distinct from the 

 Antillean, it seems to be the latter that should bear the name pas- 

 serina. The Jamaican bird, as Mr. A. Newton has remarked (Ibis, 

 1859, p. 254), is the same as the species which inhabit the Virgin 

 Islands — the Chamcepelia trochila of Bonaparte (Consp. ii. p. 77), 

 which name must in this case give place to the Linnean one. 



65. NuMiDA meleagris (Linn.) : Gosse, p. 325. 

 Introduced from Africa.

Two ex. in Mr. Osburn's collection I refer to this s])ccies, which is
