There are probably several other species which 

 might be included in this genus, but I have refrained 

 from introducing more than the above, being fearful 

 of increasing its already too far extended limits : 

 among the birds above referred to it may be observed 

 that Co. vulgaris, Brasiliana, Orzyzivora, Brasiliana, 

 and Cardinalis, differ greatly from each other in the 

 character of the beak and in general habit.
