 supposed white phase of the foregoing species. Seebohm, in the 

 article quoted above, p. 182, gives Ardea grayi as recorded by Cas- 

 sin, but A. grayi is an entirely different bird belonging, as it does, to 

 the genus Ardeola. No species of this genus has been reported from 

 the Liu-Kiu Islands, as yet.
