Metropolitan Toronto Library Science & Technology Department Les images suivantes ont 6t6 reproduites avec le plus grand soin, compte tenu de la condition et de la nettetd de l'exemplaire filmd, et en conformity avec les conditions du contrat de filmage. Original copies in printed paper covers are filmed beginning with the front cover and ending on the last page with a printed or illustrated impres- sion, or the back cover when appropriate. All other original copies are filmed beginning on the first page with a printed or illustrated impres- sion, and ending on the last page with a printed or illustrated impression. Les exemplaires originaux dont la couverture en papier est imprim6e sont filmds en commen^ant par le premier plat et en terminant soit par la dernidre page qui comporte une empreinte d'impression ou d'illustration, soit par le second plat, selon le cas. Tous les autres exemplaires originaux sont filmds en commenpant par la premidre page qui comporte une empreinte d'impression ou d'illustration et en terminant par la dernidre page qui comporte une telle empreinte. The last recorded frame on each microfiche shall contain the symbol -^(meaning "CON- TINUED"), or the symbol V (meaning "END"), whichever applies. Un des symboles suivants apparattra sur la dernidre image de cheque microfiche, selon le cas: le symbole — »> signifie "A SUIVRE", le symbols V signifie "FIN". Maps, plates, charts, etc., may be filmed at different reduction ratios. Those too large to be entirely included in one exposure are filmed beginning in the upper left hand corner, left to right and top to bottom, as many frames as required. The following diagrams illustrate the method: Les cartes, planches, tableaux, etc., peuvent dtre film6s d des taux de reduction diff^rents.

W, PuTiMM & Co. 1879. y ^yy^^ Stra oft] is oi men intei origi Printed at the SALEM PRESS, ^ i:% ^ Liberty & Derby Sts., Salem. ^ Check List of North American Birds. Note. — The species are numbered consecutively from 1 to 635. Stragglers have the number in brackets. Varieties bear the number of the species to which they belong, with a, b, c, etc., unless a variety is our only representative of the species, when it is separately enu- merated. Obscure or doubtful species are marked with a note of interrogation after the number. Each species is followed by the original describer's name; when this is not also the authority for the nomenclature adopted the name of such authority is added, the former being retained in parenthesis. A similar practice is observed in the cases of varieties ; when, as in most instances, they were origi- nally described as species they are followed by the authority for their reduction to varieties, as well as by the name of the describer; the latter in parenthesis. The List contains a very few species discovered since the "Key" was printed; otherwise, it is an exact reflection of that work, the arrangement and nomenclature being identical. The numbers of the genera as used in the Key are given in the head lines of the List in order to fticilitate reference. Authors are at variance in the formation of the genitive of Latinized proper names ; in the absence of any universally observed rule, euphony may perhaps be advantageously consulted. In the Key, the i was doubled in all cases of words ending in a consonant, the nominative being considered to end in -ius ; this practice is preferably applicable to monosyllables, as Bairdii, and polysyllables, as Audtibonii. But it is necessary to use single i in words ending in r, as Cooperi, and best to do so in most cases of d{sK"llables, as Wilsoni, Cassini, Swainsoni. The same is the case with ali words ending in a vowel. The following are the abbreviations used for authors' names occur- ring most frequently ; others are for the most part written in full : — All., Allen; Aud., Audubon; Bd., Baird; Bodd., Boddaertj- Bp., Bona- parte; Caft., Cabauls; Cass., Cassin; Cs., Coues; Comft., Gambel; Gm., Gmelin; Gr., Gray, Z,., Llnuojus; ia/r., Lafresnaye ; Za-bllledl Ttarusb. 11.
