Wayne: List of Avian Species 5 



39. Myiarchus crinitus (Linnaeus). Crested Flycatcher. 

 Linn., Syst. Nat., ed. 10, 1758, 170 (Carolina; based on Muscicapa 

 cristata, ventre luteo. Catesby, Nat. Hist. Carolina, I, 1731, 52, 

 pi. 52). 



40. Myiochanes virens (Linnaeus). Wood Pewee. Linn., 

 Syst. Nat., ed. 12, I, 1766, 327 (based on Muscicapa carolinensis 

 cinerea. Brisson, Orn., II, 368). 



41. ?Otocoris alpestris alpestris (Linnaeus). Horned Lark. 

 The type locality of this boreal species is attributed to South 

 Carolina by Catesby based on The Lark as frequenting the sand- 

 hills along the shore of South Carohna in winter (Nat. Hist. 

 Carolina, 1, 1731, 32, pi. 32). Catesby, however, must have made 

 a plate of this bird from an Old World specimen and incorpo- 

 rated it in his work, as in more than thirty years of continuous 

 collecting I have seen the Horned Lark but once and that was on 

 January 20, 1893, when I secured several specimens on the main- 

 land. (See Auk, X, 1893, 205, and Contr. Chas. Mus., I, 

 1910, 104.) The Meadowlark {Sturnella magna magna) was 

 known in early colonial days as The Lark, and I may add that 

 that bird bears the same name today, and ftirthermore that it 

 is common in winter among the sandhills of the seashore. Linn., 

 Syst. Nat., ed. 10, I, 1758, 166 (Virginia; based oq The Lark. 

 Catesby, Nat. Hist. CaroKna, I, 1731, 32, pi. 32. L'Alouette de 

 Virginie. Brisson, Orn., IV, 367). 



42. Cyanocitta cristata cristata (Linnaeus). Blue Jay. 

 Linn., Syst. Nat., ed. 10, I, 1758, 106 (based on the Blew Jay.
