46 THE AUSTRAL AVIAN RECORD [Vol. III. 



Vol. XX., p. 31 (where a footnote is given : " The genus 

 Lorius is generally attributed to Brisson, who did not use 

 the name in a generic sense "), Wagler's name Domicella is 

 available. As the vernacular Lory is in use for many species, 

 the emendations will cause little confusion. 



A specific alteration may be here proposed. In the 

 Catalogue of Birds, Vol. XX., p. 394, Eclectus cardinalis is used, 

 based on Psiltacus cardinalis Boddaert, p. 30. On p. 22 Eos 

 cardinalis is used, based on Lorius cardinalis G. R. Gray, 

 Genera Birds, App., p. 20, 1849, given to the " Lori Cardinal 

 Homb. & Jacq. Voy. Pole Sud. Oiseaux, pi. 24, bis 2." But 

 at that reference " L. cardinalis " is added to the genus Lorius, 

 as expressed in Vol. II., p. 416, where appears " L. cardinalis 

 (Bodd.) PI. Enl. 518." Consequently Gray's name was invalid 

 at its introduction and it does not seem to have since been 

 rectified. We therefore propose the new name 



Eos GRAYI 

 for the species figured by Hombron & Jacquinot, Voy. Pole 

 Sud. Oiseaux, pi. 24, bis 2. 



Alauda nigri. 



This name is proposed (note the typographical error again) 

 on p. 46 for pi. 738, but it previously had been introduced 

 on p. 40 for a different bird. Nevertheless, the second usage 

 was made the base of Centrites niger in the Catalogue of Birds, 

 Vol. XIV., p. 61 ; and when Richmond, in the Auk, Vol. XIX., 

 1902, p. 92, pointed out that Centrites should be replaced 

 by Lessonia, as that name had been rejected in error, he did 

 not observe this double usage, consequently in Brabourne and 

 Chubb's List, p. 269, Lessonia niger (Bodd.) appears. Gmelin, 

 p. 792, gave the name Alauda rufa to the same plate, so that 

 the correct name seems to be 



Lessonia ruea (Gmelin). 

 Tanara sulva, recte fulva. 



This name, given on p. 50, has been overlooked, and in 

 Brabourne and Chubb's List, p. 420, Lanio atricapillus (Gmelin)
