Smaller: uo white edging to the primaries chrysogaster, p. 52. * Bonaparte described in 1837 a Guiraca magnirostris, which in 1850 he referred with doubt to the genus Pheucticus; but it is so badly diagnosed that I have not been able to identify the species, nor has Mr. Salvin been able to make it out. As Swainson had already described a Guiraca magnirostris, Bona- parte's name became untenable, and in 1869 Count Salvadoi-i re-named the species Pheucticus bonapartii, which name it will bear when any one is able to identify it. The synonymy is as follows:— Pheucticus bonapartii. Guiraca magnirostris, Bp. P. Z. S. 1837, p. 120 (nee Swains.). Ooccoborus magnirostris, Bp. Consp. i. p. 504 (1850); cf. Salvin $ God man, Biol. , Aves, i. p. 334, note (1884). Goniaphea magnirostris, Gray, Hand-l. B. ii. p. 104, no. 7549 (1870). Pheucticus bonapartii, Salvad. Atti R. Accad. Sci.
