320 MR. p. L. SCLATER ON CHIT,IAN BIRDS. [MaV. 28, 



The nomenclature used in this paper, unless the contrary is stated, 

 is that of my ' Catalogue of American Birds.' 



JMy friend Mr. Osbert Salvin has gone through the whole of the 

 Columbae, Grallfe, and Anseres referred to in these notes, along with 

 me, and has brought his series of specimens for comparison. The 

 results arrived at under these heads are, therefore, as much his 

 conclusions as my own. 



Fam. TuKDiD^. 



- I have only seen two species of this family undoubtedly from Chili 

 — namely, Turdus falhlandicus (from Chiloe, teste Darwin, Voy. 

 Beagle, Birds, p. 59; and Valdivia, Hartl. Naum. 1853, p. 212) 

 and Mimus thenca. Turdus fuscater, Lafr. & D'Orb., is stated by 

 Gay (Hist, de Chile, Zool. i. p. 331) to be one of the "commonest 

 birds in Chili," but Gay's authority is utterly unreliable. Lieut. 

 Gilliss (U. S. Naval Astr. Exp. ii. p. 184) also states it to be "ex- 

 tremely common," but does not say in what locality. Burmeister 

 met with this bird in the neighbourhood of Mendoza ; but that is on 

 the other side of the Andes.
