p. 78. For Genus Hypolais Brehm substitute 
Hippolais Baldenstein, Neue Afpina, ii. p. 27, 1827. 
Type by monotypy II. italica Bald. = II. polyglotta 
(Vieill.). 
The generic names of the Icterine, Melodious, and 
Olivaceous Warblers must also be changed to Hip - 
polais ( vide Mathews and Iredale, Austr. Av. Rec. iii. 
p. 122). 
p. 127. For Flammea substitute 
Tyto Billberg, Synops. Faun. Scand. i. pt. 2, 1828, 
tab. A. Type Stria; alba Scop. ( cf . Mathews, Nov. 
Zool. xvii. 1910, p. 500, and Auk, 1920, p. 444). 
p. 216. The type of the genus Tringa is not T. canutus 
but T. ochropus , as was first pointed out by Mathews

discovery of the Anonymous reviewer in the Allg. 
Lit. Zeit. {cf. P. U. S. Nat. Mus. liii. p. 581) will 
involve considerable changes in the genera of the
