12. *Mniotilta striata (Gmeh). 
The only specimen I have heard of is one sent in 1853 from 
Godthaab to the late Mr. Steenberg, who kindly forwarded it to 
me for determination. 
13. *Mniotilta parus (Wils.) ? 
The only specimen ever obtained (a young bird shot October 
16, 1845, at Frederikshaab, and presented to the Royal Mu¬ 
seum by Holboll) is in so bad a state that I cannot be positive 
that I am right in referring it to this species. 
14. *Mniotilta americana (Linn.). 
A specimen in a very bad state, but quite recognizable, was 
sent to the Royal Museum from South Greenland in 1857. 
15. *Mniotilta ruhricapilla (Wils.). 
Twice obtained; a specimen being procured more than twenty- 
five years back at Godthaab, and another at Fiskensesset on the 
31st of August, 1840. Both are in the Royal Museum. 
16. ^TrichasPhiladelphia (Wils.). 
A specimen was obtained at Fiskensesset in 1846, another at 
Julianehaab in 1853. Both are in the Royal Museum. 
17. *Motacilla alba , Linn. 
An adult female in summer dress, sent from South Greenland 
to the Royal Museum in 1849, was, as far as I know, the only 
specimen ever obtained in Greenland until Dr. Walker had the 
good fortune to obtain another during his few days’ stay at God- 
havn in August 1857. 
18. Anthus ludovicianus (Gmel.). 
19. * Anthus prat ensis (Linn.). 
Dr. Paulsen, in Sleswick, received a single specimen from 
Greenland in 1845. I never saw it myself. 
20. * Turdus iliacus , Linn. 
A specimen was sent to Dr. Paulsen in 1845; another was 
shot at Frederikshaab, October 20, 1845, and presented to the 
Royal Museum by Captain Holboll. 
21. * Turdus minor , Gmel. 
I know of one specimen only, obtained in June 1845 at
