<P. Z. S., Jan. 9, 1855, pp. 11, 12. 



Culicivora Sw., Zool. Journ. 1827, type Muscicapa stemira Temm., also embraces itf. ccemlea 

 Wils., thus including birds of different families. Cabanis separated them, rightly, but left 

 Culicivora for M. ccerulea, proposing Hapalura for M. stenura. But Hapalura is thus strictly- 

 synonymous with Culicivora, and a new name is required for the genus of which ccerulea is 

 typical. Hence Polioptila, g. n., p. 11.— The author treats of four spp. of the genus, PP. cceru- 

 lea, dumicola, leucogastra, and bilineata.

The bird which had been described by Sundevall as Aegithalus flaviceps (Foglar fran Nord- 

 ostra Afrika, Ofvers. K. Yet. Ac. Forh., vii, 1850, p. 129) is here referred to the genus Psal- 

 tria; and the Conirostrum ornatum of Lawrence (Ann. Lye. N. Y., v, 1851, p. 112, pi. 5, f. 1) is 

 shown to be synonymous therewith.
