er names and characterizes on page 91 
a western race of the Tree Swallow, 
Hirundo bicolor var. vespertina.” It is 
interesting to note that this was the 
only “variety” or subspecies Cooper 
ever named, for as shown by most of 
his writings he did not lean strongly 
toward trinoniialism. In spite of the 
fact that vespertina was ignored by 
Cooper’s contemporaries, and has until 
now remained almost completely buried, 
there seems to be a distinguishable 
105 
western race of the Tree Swallow, and 
this should be known as Tachycineta bi- 
color vespertina (Cooper).
