26 ON THE GEOaRAPHICAL DISTEIBTJTION OF THE ACCIPITRES. 



Map yi. 



The range of the genus LopJioqyps is here shown by its single 

 species, L. occipitalis, found in Africa, as illustrated by the yellow 

 colour. 



The ordinary Turkey- Vulture of the New AVorld {Bhinogry- 

 phus aura) is found in the countries coloured green ; and the 

 habitat of its South- American representative {R. perniger) will 

 most likely be found to be in the part of the continent coloured 

 iZwe, the Falkland-Islands Turkey- Vulture {R. falMandicus) being 

 confined, as its name implies, to the Falklands (pink). 



Map Vn. 



This shows the range of the genus Otogyps — that of the Indian 

 Eared Vulture (0. calvus) being coloured ^iw^, while its African 

 ally is found in the districts coloured yellow, no distinction being- 

 made between the Nubian and South- African races. 



In the New World is illustrated the range of the Californian 

 Vulture {green) ; and that of the Tellow-headed Turkey- Vulture 

 (R. urubifinga) is coloured blue. 



Map VIII. 



On this map is shown the range of the White Scavenger Vul- 

 tures, JVeopliron percnopterus and N". ginginianus. That of the 

 former is coloured yellow, and that of the Indian species pinh ; 

 but it is difficult to say where the ranges of the two species coalesce. 



Map IX. 



In this map is illustrated the range of the Hooded Scavenger 

 Vulture (JVeophron pileattis), no distinction being drawn between 

 the typical form and the smaller and more northern one, iV. mona- 

 chus, which I do not now believe to be of specific value {yellow).
