Page 358, INDEX. There should be an explanation about the numbers after the bird names. The number in parenthesis corresponds to the number of each bird on the checklist, the numbers after that corresponds to the page they are mentioned.

Page 367 INDEX: Mountain-Tanagers are under Mountain-Finches. There is only one Mountain-Ficnch, the Chestnut -breasted. The rest are Mountain-Tanagers (Black-chested, Blue-winged, Buff-breasted, etc., Scarlet-bellied)
