The old writers arc utianimons in identifying Sterna alba Sparrm. with Sterna Candida 

 Gm., and, rather than let the name remain for ever in uncertainty, it seems best to accept their decision, 

 though, as Is pointed out by Mr. Howard Saunders (P. Z. S. 1876, 668), the descrij)tion and figure of 

 Sparrmann are bad and insufficient for the determination of the species. Sparrmann's type may well 

 have been one of the specimens brought home by the German traveller Forster, who mentions that the 

 shafts of the quills are black; thus determining his specimens to be the same as S. Candida, Gm.
