S. A. March, 1918. UMi JWe litail lUq Smq EXPLANATION OF THE WORK The present work is intended to include all the species and sub- species of birds known to occur in North America (from the Arctic Islands, Greenland and Alaska, southward), Middle America (including Mexico and Central America), the West Indies and Islands of the Caribbean Sea, South America and adjacent islands of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans having fauna! relationship. In the synonymies of this work the references are largely confined to the original descriptions (with type localities), the Catalogue of Birds of the British Museum, Ridgway's Birds of North and Middle America (Bull. U. S. National Museum, No. 50), monographs of fam- ilies and genera, works containing colored plates of the various species, and important papers in relation to geographical distribution, but in many cases, where numerous nomenclature! changes have been made by authors, the more important combinations and variations are given. A slight departure from the orthodox method is that of always giving the reference to the accepted original description first, so that the type locality, which follows it in parenthesis, may be noted at a glance. Diagnostic descriptions will be given of all species and subspecies not included in the standard works, Ridgway's Birds of North and Middle America and the Catalogue of Birds of the British Museum, and for this reason Part II of this work is issued first, leaving Part I (containing the "Water Birds," Galliformes, etc.) to be completed and issued after the parts containing those Orders in Prof. Ridgway's great work shall have been published, thereby reducing the size of this work by largely diminishing the number of forms which would otherwise require descriptions, and enable the writer to conform (so far as pos- sible) to the nomenclature, conclusions regarding specific and subspecific evaluations, and the vernacular names of North and Middle American forms, adopted therein, and also to allow more time to devote to the critical study of a number of families of the so-called "Water Birds, " especially from South America, many species not previously repre- sented in the Museum's collection having been secured by expedi- tions during the past few years. In the following pages the presence of an * preceding the name of a species indicates that it is represented in the Field Museum collection by one or more specimens and when duplicates are available for ex- 5 6 EXPLANATION OF THE WORK. change the fact is indicated by the presence of a f preceding the number of specimens. Classification: In the present state of our knowledge of birds of the world no system of classification yet evolved can be considered as more than tentative. That proposed by Gadow (1892) has much to recommend it, but in a work of this character, convenience of reference is an important factor to be considered and I have, therefore, adopted the sequential arrangement proposed by Sharpe in 1891 (and used in his Hand List of Birds and later practically by Brabourne and Chubb in their List of Birds of South America) for the Orders and Families, but numerous changes in the nomenclature and arrangement of Genera and species were unavoidable, being obviously desirable to conform with their more modern usage. I am greatly indebted to the authorities of our leading Museums and others for so generously granting requests for the loan of specimens (including many types) and acknowledgments for such courtesies will be made later, but I wish here to especially express my thanks to Dr. Frank M. Chapman, Professor Robert Ridgway, Dr. C. W. Richmond, Dr. Witmer Stone, and Mr. Outram Bangs for much valuable informa- tion which has greatly aided me in my work. CHARLES B. CORY.

Somewhat resembles Chordeiles acutipennis (Boon.), but aside from generic differences it may be dis- tinguished at a glance by the much shorter wing (wing of C. acutipennis is more than 150 mm.). Setopagis parvulus (GOULD) with which it has sometimes been confounded, may be distinguished at a glance from any of the forms of N. hirundi- naceus by its much darker plumage and the conspicuous black and white (sometimes black and buff) scapulars (see Hellmayr, i.e., Tab. 2). The pattern of the white markings on the primaries approaches nearest to that of N. h crissalis (CORY) but in parvulus these areas are much larger and two specimens from Matto Grosso (cf and 9 ) have two buff spots on the inner web of the outer primary instead of white ones. In addition to other characters males of S. parvulus have a patch of white on the ends of four outer tail feathers instead of on only the two outer feathers as in N. hirundinaceus (see Hellmayr, I.e., p. 637, illustrations). b Nyctipolus hirundinaceus crissalis CORY.

Colib., 1853, p. 17. * Phaethornis yaruqui sancti-johannis HELLMAYR: According to Hellmayr it differs from P. y. yaruqui (BoyRC.) in having shorter bill, broader and darker post- ocular and malar streaks, median throat stripe wider and confluent with the smoke- gray abdomen, which is only slightly spotted with metallic green; whereas in P. y. yaruqui the under parts are largely metallic green and the throat with a median stripe of sooty blackish. Chapman (I.e.) states that it differs chiefly in its grayer under parts. b As stated by Hartert (Nov. Zool., IV, 1897, p. 29) Phaethornis superciliosus (LiNN.) based upon Polytmus cayanensis longicaudus BRISSON clearly refers to the smaller bird with tawny and buff colored throat and breast, having a distinctly marked throat and bill about l>£ inches long (slightly less according to Brisson). Audebert and Vieillot, 1802, figured a bird with larger and longer bill; dusky marked throat, and more grayish under parts (which was later described by Nordmann as malaris) evidently supposing it to superciliosus LINN, and he was followed by Lesson, 1831, and later by Gould. Gould evidently supposing that Nordmann had merely redescribed superciliosus and having specimens from "Guiana," which were quite different, again described the smaller and more buffy bird as fraterculus. 0 1 strongly suspect that the type of P. superciliosus LINN, came from British Guiana. d I have examined specimens identified as guianensis by Boucard. e Phaethornis superciliosus moorei (LAWR.) : Differs from P. s. superciliosus (LiNN.) from Guiana, in smaller size; bill shorter and more slender; gular stripe more distinct; under parts less rufescent. ipi8.
