1804. Hermann, J. Observations Zoologicee (4to), pp. 136, 137. 

 The author here gives three fresh titles : — 



Certhia flaviventris and C. citrinella, both =-Cinnyris zeylonicus (Linn. 1766). 

 C. nitens, = Cinnyris asiaticus (Lath. 1790). 



1808. Levaillant, Francois. Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux d'Afrique (4to, Paris), vol. vi, 

 pp. 143-178. 



Fourteen species are here figured and described ; but only French names are given. Of these 

 Le Sucrier cardinaline has been proved to have been a made-up bird ; and we may therefore 

 doubt Le Sucrier bronze and Le Suction ever having been really obtained by Levaillant, as they 

 cannot be determined. 



One species is new, Le Sucrier gamtocin ou Sucrion a cordon bleu, =A)ithrej)tes collaris 

 (Vieill. 1819).
