DEFINITIONS
FREGETTA
(Oceanitidae; † White-bellied Storm-petrel F. grallaria leucogaster) French frégate frigate; "20. Fregetta tropica, Bp. ex Gould. Pitai. ... Un des mieux tranchés est celui des Procellariés, généralement connus sous le nom de Thalassidromes. Parmi les genres et sous-genres que comprend ce groupe, il en est un que j'ai nommé Fregetta dans la partie de mon Conspectus non encore publiée. Ce genre est bien caractérisé: son bec est petit, à tube nasal retroussé; ses ailes s'étendent bien au delà de la queue, que les pieds ne peuvent outre-passer malgré leurs longs tarses, parce que le podium en est extrêmement court; les doigts sont gros et palmés jusqu'aux bords; les ongles petits, mais fortement déprimés. Outre la présente qui devra figurer en tête, ce genre comprend la leucogastra, Gould, qui en est le type, et ma Fr. lawrencii prise pour elle en Amérique: la melanogastra, Gould, bien distincte de ma Thalassidroma oceanica aux larges ongles de Grèbes presque humains, ne me semble pas au contraire différer de la leucogastra." (Bonaparte 1855); "188. Fregetta, Bp. (Thalassidroma, part. Gr.) Rostrum parvum; tubo nasali breve, recurvo; tarsi elongati; podia brevissima; digiti torosi, apicem usque palmati; ungues depressi, parvuli: alae valde elongatae, ultra caudam subtruncatam, brevem quamvis a pedibus posttractis haud superatam longe productae. Fuliginosae plus minus albo variae. Pacific. Atl. 4. 1. THALASSIDROMA tropica, Gould. ... 2. PROCELLARIA FREGATA, Kuhl (grallaria, Vieill. 1817. nec Licht. - Thalassidroma leucogastra, Gould. ... 3? THALASSIDROMA FREGETTA, Laurence, nec Kuhl. (Fregetta laurencii, Bp.) ... 4. PROCELLARIA FREGATA, Forst. nec L. (grallaria, Licht. 1823. nec Vieill. 1817. - oceanica, Bp. 1827. nec Auct. - Th. melanogastra, Gould." (Bonaparte 1857 (Conspectus)); "Mathews (Bull. Brit. Orn. Cl., 58, pp. 11-12, Nov. 5, 1937) attempts to show that Fregetta Bonaparte was merely a lapsus calami or typographical error for Fregata Lacépède. However, his argumentation is fallacious. ... It will be noticed that Bonaparte nowhere credits it to Lacépède, and the generic name, consequently, must be regarded as an intentional creation of his own. He was, moreover, well aware of the existence of that other term, since in an earlier paper (Ann. Lyc. Nat. Hist. N. Y., 4, p. 404, 1828) he quotes "Fregata Lacép., Cuv. Duméril" in the synonymy of Tachypetes" (Hellmayr and Conover, 1948, Cat. Birds Americas, Pt. I (2), p. 91); "Fregetta Bonaparte, 1855, C. r. hebd. Séanc. Acad. Sci., Paris, 41: 1113—type (by original designation) Thalassidroma leucogaster Gould." (RAOU Checklist Birds Australia, I, p. 39).
