Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the United States National Museum, 1879, Vol. 2 In the following paper are given the measurements of all the eggs of the eight species of Empidonax that are in the collections of the Smithsonian Institution, and also those in my own, and also a few others. Three of these species, E. minimus, obscurus, and hommondi, so far as is known, have eggs that are uniformly of an unspotted white. If ever spotted, they arc so very rarely and so very slightly as hardly to constitute really an exception. In another species, flaviventris, of which, so tar as I am aware, only five or six well-identified sets have been secured. at least two well-identified sets have been taken that are entirely of an unspotted white color, the others being all more or less spotted and marked. All the remaining four species, traillii, acadieus, pusillus, and difficilis, have eggs strongly marked, though, among them all, eggs are occasionally found that are of an unspotted white, or marked with very minute spottings. In the following brief mention I chiefly confine myself to the size of each egg, its locality, and the authority for its identification, if the record has been preserved. Empidonax hammondi, Baird. Four eggs in Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge (No. 1681), from Blue River. Colo., Edwin Carter, measure .62 x .52; .60 x .54; .62 x .52; .64 x .53, averaging about .62 x .53 T. M. B.'s cabinet No. 1921. Anderson River. MacFarlane. .67x.52; .68 x .51., The first set is smaller and more rounded than average eggs of E. minimus, but they are otherwise indistinguishable. None are spotted. Empidonax obscurus, Baird. Smithsonian No. 15875. Utah. Ridgway. .71 x .55. Ground-color an immaculate dead white. Smithsonian No. 13592.Austin, Nev. Ridgway. .72 x .53; .74 x .55. Smithsonian No. 2335.Dodge Valley, Utah. McCarty. .70 x .53; .72 x .54. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the United States National Museum, 1894, Vol. 17 The extension of the scope of the National Museum during the past few years and the activity of the collectors employed in its interest have caused a great increase in the amount of material in its possession. Many of the objects gathered are of a novel and important character, and serve to throw a new light upon the study of nature and of man. The importance to science of prompt publication of descriptions of this material led to the establishment, in 1878, of the present series of publications, entitled Proceedings of the United States National Museum, the distinguishing peculiarity of which is that the articles are published in pamphlet form as fast as completed and in advance of the bound volume. The present volume constitutes the seventeenth of the series. The articles in this series consist: First, of papers prepared by the scientific corps of the National Museum; secondly, of papers by others, founded upon the collections in the National Museum; and, finally, of facts and memoranda from the correspondence of the Smithsonian Institution.
