Scarcely citable as a separate article, as it is part of the general report on the Ornithology 

 of the Survey. It is well, however, thus to call attention to one of several essays on this 

 genus, especially as some of the colored plates illustrate the species. The author recognizes 

 the following forms of the genus : — A. J. hyemalis, with var. aikeni. B. J. oregonus, with 

 var. annectens. C. J. cinereus, with vars. alticola, dorsalis, and canieeps. — ^Pl. viii, J. annec- 

 tens. PI. ix, J. dorsalis. PI. x, J. cinereus.

Continuation of the discussion with Mr. J". A. Allen of the much-vexed question respecting 

 the species of this genus:— See Bull. If. S. Geol. Surv. Terr., No. 2, May 14, 1875, and op. cit, 

 vol. ii, No. 4, July, 1876, pp. 345-350. In the present paper the author goes further into the 

 subject, and concludes that he has "no hesitation" in asserting the distinct North American 

 species of the genus to be L. grisclnucha Brandt, L. tephrocotis Sw., L. atrata Ridgw., and L. 

 australis Allen. The article is somewhat controversial. Cf. Ibis, 1878, p. 104.

Captured near Brighton, England, 22d Mar., 1872.— A previous occurrence of the same spe- 

 cies in Great Britain, in Scotland, is recorded by Newton, P. Z. S., 1870, p. 52, and by Eob. 

 Gray, B. of West Scotland, p. 138, plate. This was taken 17th Aug., 1867, and in Mar., 1868, 

 a notice of the occurrence was communicated b.y Mr. Angus to the Nat. Hist. Soc. of Glasgow, 

 and a description with a plate was afterwards published in the Proceedings of that Society.
