583a. Melospiza lincolni striata Brewst. Forbush’s Sparrow.’ 
“Similar to M. lincolni, but with the superciliary stripe and entire upper 
parts more strongly olivaceous, and the dark streaks, especially on the pileum, 
back, and upper tail-coverts, coarser, blacker, and more numerous.” Hab. Coast 
district of British Columbia. 
(71.) Page 434, Genus ARREMONOPS. 
New genus: Type, Embernagra rufivirgata Lawr. 
The Mexican and Central American species usually referred to the genus 
Eimbernagra Less. are so different in structural and other characters’ from the 
type of the latter (Hmberiza platensis GmEL.) that only a moment’s comparison 
is necessary to demonstrate their generic distinctness. The name chosen for 
the new genus is selected on account of the very close affinity of the birds in 
question to those of the genus Arremon ViIEILL. (usually placed among the 
Tanagers). In fact, I have found it difficult to discover reasons for separating 
them generically from the latter. 
(72.) Page 439, Pipilo chlorurus (= Oreospiza chlorura) : 
This bird, which has been referred by different authors to the genera 
“ Embernagra” (i.e. Arremonops) and Atlapetes, but which is really far more out 
of place in either than in Pipilo, I propose to make the type of a new genus, 
Oreospiza, whose characters are intermediate between, or rather a combination 
of, those of Pipilo and Zonotrichia. 
(78.) Page 441, after P. fuscus crissalis : 
591c. Pipilo fuscus senicula Antony. San Fernando Towhee. 
“Differing from crissalis in smaller size, much less rusty on lower parts, 
upper parts darker, and lower more grayish.” Hab. “Southern California, and 
Lower California as far south as 29° at least.” 
(14) Page 442, under C. cardinalis: 
593c. Cardinalis cardinalis canicaudus Cuarm. Gray-tailed Cardinal. 
“Male similar to the male of Cardinalis cardinalis, but with a less con- 
spicuous black frontlet; female averaging grayer than the female of Cardinalis 
cardinalis, and with the tail-feathers broadly margined with gray instead of 
being narrowly edged with olivaceous-brown.” Hab. “Southwestern Texas, 
south into northeastern Mexico.”
