writers ; later reduced to a race of the latter. 9, Larus californicus. 10, L. delawarensis. 

 11, L. brachyrhynchus Eicli., being the IST. Am. representative of i. canus ; to it are referred 

 L. suckleyi and Missa neptentrionaUs of Lawrence. 12, JBlasipus heermanni. 13, Bissa tridac- 

 tyla. 14, R. kotzebui, the N. Pacitic analogue of B. tridaetyla. 15, B. brachyrhyncha Gould, 

 or brevirofitris Brandt. 16, Pagophila eburnea. 17, P. brachytarsus (since admitted to be 

 same as 16). 18, Chroicocephalus atricilla. 19, C. eueullatus (afterward referred to 20). 20, 

 C.franklhii. 21, C. Philadelphia. 22, 0. mmMfMs (given as questionably Korth American). 

 23, Bhodostethia rosea. 24, Xema sabinii. 25, Creagrus furcaius. 



Taking from these 25 species the following 5, viz : L. hutchinsii, L. chalcopterus, Bissa 

 kotzebui, Pagophila brachytarsus, Chroicocephalus eueullatus, as not valid, and G. minutus as 

 extralimital, we have a residuum of 19 good species, moat of which are carefully described 

 in this paper, with brief synonymy, and extended criticism. The paper is handicapped by 

 the anther's reliance to greater extent than the facts warrant upon Bonaparte's and Bruch's 

 misguiding and perplexing lead. It is otherwise a very fair exhibit of the knowledge we 

 possessed at the time the paper was written.

 Nat. Sci. Phila., xiv, 1862, pp. 535-559. 

 The genera and species critically reviewed in this paper are the following : — 

 1, Gelochelidon anglica. 2, Thalasseus easpius ; the N. Am. bird tentatively named Th. im- 

 perator, sp. n., p. 538. 3, T. regius. 4, T. elegans. 5, T. acuflapidus (afterward reunited with 

 T. cantiaea). 6, Ste'na trudeaui. 7, S. "havelli'\ considered as the winter plumage of S. 

 forsteri. 8, (S. forsteri. 9, S. hirundo. 10, S. macroura. 11, S. pikei Lawr. 12, S. para- 

 disea. 13, S. antillarum. 14, Hydrochelidon fissipes. 15, Haliplana fuliginosa. 16, Anous 

 stolidus, with A.frater, sp. n. prob., p. 558. Neither of the two new names has proven to 

 represent much value. The identification of S. havelli, here first made, has been confirmed. 

 S. pikei is not a good species. T. aeuflavidus is not distinct from I. cantiacus. The other 

 species hold, though some of them require other names, and several species have since been 

 added to the North American Fauna^ See same author at 1874, Birds of the Northwest.
