. Notes on an alleged new Species of Tern, Sterna alba^ Potts. 
Tom. cit. pp. 214 & 215. 
Admits that this supposed species was wrongly identifled with S. nereis ; 
but, as no specimen has yet been obtained, it is not possible to say what 
the species may prove to be. The specific name alba is not admissible, 
there being already a Sterna alba of Gmelin.

cit. pp. 215 & 216. 
This supposed species is compared with Procellaria {(Estrelata) cooki, 
and therefore probably belongs to the genus CEstrelata and not to Pro- 
cellaria.
