Sir, I had no sooner seen the cases of the male, and female Macreuse , which you sent me, but instant I found that the Macreuse was no Stranger to me, though unknown by that name: I was very much pleased to be so suddenly rid of my long continued scruples about it, and not a little surprized, when I found it to be another kind of Bird then I imagined; a particular description of the Cock, you may find in Mr. Willughby's Ornithology pag. $66.of the English Edition, among the Sea-Ducks, to which kind this Bird belongs, and not to the Divers or Duckers ( Mergi or Colymbi ,) as I falsly fancied to my self.
