Dismissing these su,bjects for the present, it will perhaps be most convenier~t to treat of the two groups which are represented by the genera Pyrrhocorax or choughs, and Corvus or true crows in the most limited sense.
Pyrrhocorax comprehends at least two very good species, which have been needlessly divided generically.
The best known of them is the Cornish chough (P. graculus), formerly a denizen of the precipitous cliffs of the south coast of England, of Wales, of the west and north coasts of Ireland, and some of the Hebrides, but now greatly reduced in numbers, and only found in.
