593d. Cardinalis cardinalis floridanus Rivew. (new subspecies). 
Florida Cardinal. 
Smaller and darker colored than C. cardinalis ; adult male with the terminal 
margins of feathers of back, etc., olivaceous instead of gray; adult female with 
more red in crest and on tail, the chest frequently much tinged or intermixed 
with red. Hab, Florida. 
(Type, No. 54986, gad., U. S. Nat. Mus., Enterprise, Florida ; G. A. Board- 
man.) 
(75.) Page 444, P. sinuata: 
Restrict range of P. sinuata to Texas and northeastern Mexico and add 
the following forms: 
594a, Pyrrhuloxia sinuata beckhami Rinew. Arizona Pyrrhuloxia.’ 
Differing from P. sinuata in decidedly browner and somewhat lighter tone 
of the gray, and greater extent of dark red on the tail; adult male without 
blackish suffusion or admixture in the lighter carmine-red of the capistrum, 
and red of the crest much lighter; female with much less of a grayish tinge 
across chest and along sides; wing (d’) 3.60-3.90, tail 4.40-4.60, depth of bill 
50-52. Hab. Southern Arizona and New Mexico and contiguous portion of 
northern Mexico. 
594d, Pyrrhuloxia sinuata peninsulz Ripaw. St. Lucas Pyrrhuloxia’ 
Similar to P. s. beckhami in color, but decidedly smaller, with larger bill ; 
wing (c') 3.30-3.60, tail 3.80-4.15, depth of bill 52-55. Hab. Southern Lower 
California. 
(76.) Page 453, Genus PIRANGA VIEILLoT: 
Add P. rubriceps Gray (Pyranga rubriceps Gray, Gen. B. ii. 364, pl. 89), 
which is said to have been taken in California (Dos Pueblos, Santa Barbara 
County, cf. Walter E. Bryant, Auk, Jan. 1887, p. 78). This species belongs in 
section a}, although the wing is bicolored, the lesser and middle coverts being 
pure gamboge-yellow, while the greater and primary coverts, alula, and remiges 
are dull black, edged, more or less, with olive-green. The adult male has the 
entire head and upper part of neck (sometimes whole neck and chest) bright 
red, the back and scapulars olive-green changing to olive-yellow on rump and 
upper tail-coverts, the tail olive-dusky edged with olive-green, and the lower 
parts rich yellow; wing 3.60-3.75, tail 3.40-3.50. The adult female probably 
lacks the red of the head and neck, although said to be “like the male, but the 
scarlet color of the head only extending to the nape and throat” (ScuatEr, Cat. 
B. Brit. Mus. xi. 1886, 192). The occurrence of this species in California can 
only be considered as purely accidental, its habitat being Colombia and Ecuador, 
entirely south of the Isthmus of Panama,
