The species included in this section number 866, of which 215 are paleospecies and 151 are neospecies. With the addenda of 14 paleospecies, the three parts now published treat 1,236 spDcies, of which 771 are paleospecies and 465 are living or recently extinct. The nominal order- Diatrymiformes is reduced in rank to a suborder of the Ralliformes, and several generally recognized families are reduced to subfamily status. These include Geranoididae and Eogruidae (to Gruidae); Bfontornithidae (to Phorusrhacidae); Bathornithidae, Psilopteridae, and "Hermosiornithidae" (to Cariamidae); Rostratulidae, Charadriidae, Phalaropodidae, and Haematopodidae (to Scolopacidae); Presbyornithidae (to Recurvirostridae); Rhegminomithidae (to Jacariidae); and Mancallidae (to Alcidae). New taxa include the family Gryza jidae (for Grt,zaia odessana Zubareva, in suborder Otides); the subfamilies Palaeociconiinae (for Palaeociconia Moreno and Mercerat, in Phorusrhacidae) and Prophororhacinae (for Prophororhacus Rovereto, in Cariamidae); the genus Eort!/x (for TringaP ho#manni Gervais, in Gallinuloid- inae); and the species Gallinula kansarum (Upper Pliocene, Kansas), Eogrus wetmorei (Upper Miocene, Inner Mongolia), Limosa ossicallis (Lower Pliocene, Florida), and Erolia ennottchii (new name for Totanus minor Ennouchi, pre- occupied). 1 The author is Professor of Biological Sciences and Zoology at the University of Florida, Gainesville.

In these three orders the fossil record covers 34 families ( 10 extinct and 24 living), 180 genera ( 99 paleogenera and 81 neogenera), and 366 species ( 215 paleospecies and 151 neospecies ), plus 6 paleogenera and 14 paleospecies in the Addenda. The marsh birds have a more extensive fossil record than any other avian group, but opinion still differs as to whether they are monophyletic or should be divided into three or more orders ( Strese- mann makes ten). Uniting the rails, cranes, bustards, and satellite groups tends to equate the taxon more nearly with ordinal rank in other vertebrate classes. No trenchant reason exists for excluding Diatryma and its allies from the Ralliformes. Like the ostriches, these large birds and the phororhacoids have been given a superfluity of names at the specific, generic, and higher levels. I have attempted to cut this Gordian knot by synonymizing those coetaneous taxa for which differentiating characters have not been established. Pending completion of a revision of Marsh's material, I tentatively place Ichthyornis and Apatornis between the Ralliformes and the Charadriiformes, and hold in abeyance the question of the toothed jaws. Hildegarde Howard and Alexander Wetmore read the manuscript of the present installment, as well as the preceding parts, and their help is gratefully acknowledged. No longer available was the advice of Alden Holmes Miller ( 4 February 1906-9 October 1965), whose ex- tensive bibliography includes 27 papers on paleornithology, with data on the fossil occurrence of neospecies and descriptions of a new fam- ily ( Paranyrocidae), 10 new genera, and 23 new species of fossil birds. Numerous friends mentioned in the introduction of Parts 1 and 2 of the Catalogue continued to furnish information or specimens. To these I am happy to add the names of Ticul Alvarez, Mexico City; Andrew A. Arata, New Orleans, Louisiana; Donald Baird, Princeton, New Jersey; Peter Ballman, Munich, Germany; Dietrich E.

With the present installment all the water birds have been treated, as well as some of the land birds. These represent 96 families (34 extinct and 62 living), 550 genera ( 303 paleogenera and 247 neo- genera), and 1,230 species ( 771 paleospecies and 465 neospecies). The remaining groups, species incertae sedis, and nomina nuda will, hopefully, comprise the fourth part of the Catalogue. 108 BULLETIN FLORIDA STATE MUSEUM Vol. 11 ADDENDA TO PREVIOUS PARTS Genera and species listed below supplement the previous Addenda published on pages 203-204 of Part 2. They include new taxa based on diagnostic parts of the skeleton and described since preceding in- stallments of the Catalogue. I am indebted to James Fisher, London, and E. Kurotchkin, Moscow, for .calling to my attention a species overlooked during the preparation of Part 2, and I hope that workers knowing of similar omissions will so inform me.

As pointed out by Ballmann (1967, Die V6gel aus def altburdigalen Spaltenfullung von Wintershof (West) bei Eichstatt in Bayern, pp. 43 ff), the expression "Palaeortyx ho#manni, nov. gen." (Milne- Edwards, 1869, Ois. foss. France, vol. 2, p. 217) was not a designation of that species as the type of the genus, for he says of Pataeort!/x gallica, nov. sp., "Cette esp6ce devra mdme Btre considdrde comme le type de eette genre" (p. 280).

Holotype from Rexroad locality 3, distal part of left humerus, Univ. Kansas no. 8994~ collected by C. W. Hibbard and party, 1937. Referable to Gallinula in having condyles close and intercondylar space narrow, so that proximal end of external condyle extends over internal condyle (in Fulica condyles distant and intercondylar space wide, so that proximal end of external condyle is in line with outer edge of internal condyle); edge of ectepicondylar process strongly concave in Dalmar view (nearly straight in Fulica). Differs from Pleisto- cene Gallinula brodkorbi McCoy and living and Pleistocene Gallinuta chloropus (Linnaeus) in having ectepicondylar process shorter, with edge in palmar view even more strongly concave; entegicondyle shorter with distal end truncate. Distal width 8.0 (8.6 in type of G. brodkorbi, 7.4-8.8 in 14 G. chloropus). No. 8988, a right ulna lacking the olecranon and otherwise damaged, is from the same locality but is referred only tentatively. It is 10-20 min shorter than in Fulica americana, besides differing in structural details, e.g. the external condyle falls short of the trochleae (in Futica the' external condyle forms the most distal part of the bone). It is stouter and slightly longer than the ulna of G. brodkorbi and G. chloropus. Length as preserved, 46.8, width through condyles, 5.6; width of shaft, 4.5 mm. 126 BULLETIN FLORIDA STATE MUSEUM VoI. 11 Genus tEpirallus L. Miller Epirallus L, Miller, 1942 ( March 6), Univ. Calif.

' Both volumes of the Proceedings bear, the date 1968, but it is highly im- probable that they were published before January 1964. As late as December 28, 1968, the binder in St. Louis assured editor J. J. Hickey that mailing would begin on December 30, with the first copy going to the Card Catalog Division ok the Library of Congress, but neither printer nor binder have confirmed that this act- ually took place. There is no record of the date of receipt at the Library of Con- gress, where both volumes cleared the Monthly Checklist of State Publications Section on January 80, 1964, and "probably arrived sometime earlier in January" (Mary Ellis Kahler; Chief, Serial Record Division, letter of February 20, 1964).

Contributions to the BULLmIN OF THE FLORIDA STATE MUSEUM may be in any field of biology. Manuscripts dealing with natural history or systematic problems involving the southeastern United States or the Caribbean area are solicited especially. Manuscripts should be of medium length-50 to 200 pages. Examination for suitability is made by an Editorial Board. The BULLETIN iS distributed worldwide through institutional subscriptions and exchanges only. It is considered the responsibility of the author to distribute his paper to all interested individuals. To aid in this, fifty copies are furnished the author without cost. PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPT Highly recommended as a guide is the volume: Conference of Biological Editors, Committee on Form and Style. 1960. Style manual for biological journals. Amer. Inst. Biol. Sci., Washington. 92 p. Manuscripts should be typewritten with double spacing throughout, with ample margins, and on only one side of the paper. The author should keep a copy; the original and a carbon must be submitted. Tables and legends of figures should be typed on sheets separate from the text. Several legends or tables may be placed on a single sheet. Illustrations, including maps and photographs, should be referred to as "figures." All illustrations are reduced to a maximum of 4-1/4 by 7-1/8 inches. Size scales, wherever they are necessary, should be incorporated into the figure. References to literature should conform with the bibliographic style used in recent numbers of the BULLImN Spell out in full the titles of non-English serials and places of publication. Footnote material should be kept to a minimum. However, provide copy for a footnote detailing the title, affiliations, and address of the author (see recent numbers of the BULLETIN~. Manuscripts must be accompanied by a synopsis-a brief and factual summary (not a mere description) of the contents and conclusions, which points out the presence of any new information and indicates its relevance. In it list all new organisms described and give their ranges; indicate all taxonomic changes pro- posed. The synopsis, written in full sentences, should be concise, but completely intelligible in itself without references to the paper, thereby enabling the busy reader to decide more surely than he can from the title alone whether the paper merits his reading. The synopsis will be published with the paper. It does not replace the usual conclusions or summary sections. It may also serve as copy for the abstracting services. Manuscripts and all editorial matters should be addressed to: Managing Editor of the BULLEMN Florida State Museum Seagle Building Gainesville, Florida
