  Adocus 
  vyomingensis 
  does 
  not 
  belong 
  to 
  this 
  genus, 
  but 
  to 
  an 
  allied 
  form, 
  Baptemys 
  of 
  Leidy 
  

   and 
  is 
  probably 
  of 
  Tertiary 
  age. 
  Adocus 
  proves 
  to 
  have 
  an 
  intergular 
  scutum 
  and 
  be 
  the 
  type 
  of

  The 
  bird 
  described 
  as 
  Meleagris 
  superbus, 
  1 
  am 
  informed 
  by 
  Prof. 
  O. 
  C, 
  Marsh, 
  is 
  the 
  same 
  as 
  that 
  

   exhibited 
  by 
  him 
  at 
  a 
  meeting 
  of 
  the 
  Academy 
  Natural 
  Sciences, 
  March 
  8th, 
  1870, 
  (Proceedings 
  p. 
  11) 
  and 
  

   named 
  Meleagris 
  alius, 
  Marsh. 
  Of 
  this 
  fact 
  I 
  had 
  no 
  knowledge 
  until 
  after 
  the 
  above 
  form 
  had 
  been 
  

   printed 
  off, 
  and 
  now 
  rely 
  exclusively 
  on 
  Prof. 
  Marsh's 
  statement 
  for 
  the 
  identification, 
  as 
  no 
  description 
  

   accompanies 
  the 
  name, 
  and 
  I 
  have 
  not 
  seen 
  the 
  types. 
  As 
  Prof. 
  Marsh 
  has 
  priority 
  of 
  discovery 
  and 
  

   determination, 
  it 
  is 
  entirely 
  proper 
  that 
  the 
  species 
  should 
  bear 
  his 
  name, 
  M. 
  alttis.
