curved.
Brachyrhamphus Brandt.
Bill rather short, straight, and strong, with the culmen elevated at the base, arched, and the sides
much compressed to the tip, which is emarginated ; the gonys long and ascending ; the lateral margins
indexed ; the nostrils lateral, pierced in a groove, which is clothed with short plumes, leaving the
opening anteriorly and exposed. Wings moderate and pointed, with the first quill the longest. Tail
very short and rounded. Tarsi shorter than the middle toe, compressed, and covered with small scales.
Toes moderate, with the outer toe as long as the middle one, and all united by a broad web ; the claws
short, compressed, and acute.
It is between the north-western coast of America and the opposite coast of Asia that the species which compose
this genus are found. Their habits and manners are like those of the next genus.

  • Established by M. Brandt in 1837 (Bull. Acad. Sci. Imp. St. Petersb.). Anobapton and Synthliborhamphus of the same author are

subgeneric names of the same genus.
t Established by Mcehring in 1752. Grylle of M. Brandt (1837) is synonymous. It embraces Cataractes of Mcehring (1752), with

which Uria of Brisson (1760) and I,omvia of Brandt (1S37) are coequal.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
