(1) It seems doubtful whether this form is entitled to a generic 
distinction ; is it not a subgenus of Sitta ? 
(2) If Gould’s genus Scytalopus should prove different, or possess 
characters sufficiently distinct from Swainson’s Platyurus , it will, in 
that case, rank as a subgenus of Platyurus. 
(3) The analysis of this family by Mr. Swainson, contained in the 
Magazine of Zoology and Botany, is here adopted.
