370 Recertify published Ornithological Works. 
This would render the work much more generally useful, 
especially as the present indexes are not always quite reliable- 
A critical correspondent has favoured us with a list of 
34 generic names which are used in one or more of the 
27 volumes of the British Museum f Catalogue of Birds/ but 
are not to be found in any of the Indexes of the f Hand-list/ 
As it may be useful to some workers we subjoin the list. 
List of Generic Names quoted in the ‘ Catalogue of Birds in the 
British Museum/ but not mentioned in the Indexes to the 
4 Hand-list.' 
Aptornis, Arinia, Atrichia, Cassicus, Certhiola,Cerorhyncha,Chaima, 
Cliirocylla, Chloris, Cichlopsis, Cymodroma, Dissura, Doleromyia, 
Eucorystes, Klais, Lepidolarynx, Melanobucco, Microglossus, 
Monacha, Myiodioctes, Nyroca, Ortyx, Oxyrhamphus, Palamedea, 
Perissoglossa, Phonipara, Picathartes, Pinarolsema, Procnopis, 
Pteroclurus, Scotornis, Sphenoproctus, Stellula, Trichostoma. 
We may also remark that it would have been much better 
to have put the Family Names in the running titles of the 
volumes instead of the useless repetition of “ Genera and 
Species of Birds ” throughout. 
45. Van Oort on the Gerygone and Eurylsemus of Java . 
[Note XIII. On Gerygone and Eurylaimus Species from Java and 
Sumatra. By Dr. E. D. Van Oort. Notes Leyd. Mus. xxxi. p. 207.] 
The examination of recently received specimens from Java 
has convinced Dr. Van Oort that the Gerygone and Eury¬ 
lcemus of that island shew slight differences from their 
representatives in other parts of the Eastern Archipelago. 
He therefore proposes to separate the Javan form of the 
first species under the name Gerygone modigliani jacubsoni 
and to restrict the name Eurylcemus javanicus to the Javan 
form of the second species, calling the form from Sumatra, 
Banka, Biliton, Borneo, and Malacca Eurylcemus javanicus 
harterti.
