Subfamily _Dulinae_ _Diagnosis._--Bill deep and compressed, culmen strongly depressed; nostrils circular, wholly exposed; tail even, and shorter than wing; tenth primary less than half length of ninth; under parts streaked; plumage hard and harsh; rictal bristles minute; wing rounded; humerus long and with small external condyle; pygostyle and caudal muscles not well developed; one genus, one species.

Smaller, irregularly arranged pale markings on the necks of some specimens form, with the post-orbital and post-rictal spots, one or two short, ragged stripes.

The second group of _Caprimulginae_, those which are but poorly or not at all furnished with rictal bristles, contains about five genera, of which we may particularize _Lyncornis_ of the old world and _Chordiles_ of the new.
