San Lucas Flycatcher (Empidonax difficilis cineritius) ca 1925 = Pacific-slope Flycatcher (San Lucas). See http://avibase.bsc-eoc.org/species.jsp?avibaseid=7B92CB9299CB7DA8
Western Gnatcatcher = Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea) ( from avibase.)
Note that I substituted the actual text when he used ditto marks.
