 Gmelin's Certhia obscura (Syst. Nat., i., p. 470, 1788), is 

 founded on the "Hook-billed Creeper" of Latham, Gen. Syn., i., 

 pt. 2, p. 703, pi. xxxiii., fig. 1 (1782). The type was in the 

 Leverian Museum, and at the sale of the latter was purchased 

 by the Earl of Derby, and is now in the Liverpool Museum. 



On this plate is founded Gray's name of Drepanis ellisiana 

 (Cat. B., Trop. Isl., p. 9). Cf. Wilson and Evans, Av. Hawaienses, 

 p. 67, pi. 28.
