Order PASSERES. Family CORVIDAE. Subfamily CORVINAE.
1. Corvus corax, Linn. The Raven.
Corvus corax, Linn., Jerd. B. Ind. ii, p. 293.
Corvus lawrencii, Hume; Hume, Rough Draft N. & E. no. 657.
I separated the Punjab Raven under the name of Corvus lawrencei ('Lahore to Yarkand,' p. 83), and I then stated, what I wish now to repeat, that if we are prepared to consider C. corax, C. littoralis, C. thibetanus, and C. japonensis all as one and the same species, then C. lawrencei too must be suppressed; but if any of these are retained as distinct, then so must C. lawrencei be[A].
[Footnote A: I think it impossible to separate the Punjab Raven from the Ravens of Europe and other parts of the world, and I have therefore merged it into C. corax.—ED.]
