1676 J. Ray Corr. (1848) 122 In the ‘History of the Fero Islands’ I find no more species of birds than what I have already inserted in the Ornithology.

1891 Amer. Naturalist 25 640 No one thought of regarding Picus and Pica as duplicates, and the two appeared together in ornithologies for nearly a century.
