Notes on certain Flycatchers of the genus [[underlined]] Empidonax [[/underlined]], By William Brewster, 'The Auk,' no. 2, April, 1895, pp. 157-163. [[underlined]] Empidonax virescens [[/underlined]] (Vieillot) is shown to be the proper name for the bird long known as [[underlined]] E. acadius [[/underlined]] (Gmeliu), and two other species are affected in that the name [[underlined]] Empidonax traillii [[/underlined]] is restricted to the [[strikethrough]] species  [[/strikethrough]] ^[[one]] heretofore known as [[underlined]] E. pusillus (Tyrannula pusilla [[/underlined]] of Swainson being considered indeterminable), and [[underlined]] Empidonax [[strikethrough]] pusillus [[/strikethrough]] traillii alnorum [[/underlined]] is proposed as a new name for the eastern form, hitherto known as [[underlined]] E. pusillus traillii [[/underlined]].
