1 As I prefer to treat Tardus nanus and T. pallasi as distinct species I have re- 

 tained these names unchanged. If, however, they are not species, but with T. 

 Auduboni are but " forms " or " varieties " of one species, as Mr. Allen, Dr. Coues, 

 and Mr. Ridgway regard them, the nomenclature by which they are usually given 

 is not in accordance with the law of priority. Turdus nanus was given to one of 

 these so-called " forms " in 1839, T. pallasi was not given until 1847, and T. Audu- 

 boni in 1864. The species should, therefore, be not T. pallasi var. nanus and var 

 Auduboni, but Turdus nanus, variety pallasi, T. nanus, var. nanus, and T. nanus 

 var. Auduboni.
