Transcription Notes:
First pass on this. Latin species names need googling to check but keep Vernon's original spelling.
A few names were not found.
Names all Googled. Left incorrect spellings as written. All found except those bracketed [[?]]
27/2 Have had another go with a little bit of success, see below notes -@siobhanleachman
. [[Coephleus?]] pileolatus - C Hart Merrium (colleague of Vernon's) mentions a bird - pusillus pileolatus so possibly Vernon means that?
Corvus is the genus for crows.
What looks like Denclroica, I think is Vernon's bad writing and is actually Dendroica. He mentions it and spells it correctly in other parts of project.
