colinn.

Brit.

/ˈkɒlɪn/, U.S.

/ˈkɑlən/

Etymology: Given by Hernandez as the ancient Mexican name of the genus Ortyx and its congeners. But the actual Mexican word was çolin or zolin; Molina, Vocab. Mexicano y Castellano (Mexico, 1571) has ‘Çolin, codorniz’. Colin was thus apparently an erroneous form, due to omission of the cedilla in printing. From the work of Hernandez (a1628) it passed into those of Nieremberg (1635), Willughby (1676), Ray (1678), Buffon, etc. It has no connection with the French Colin a popular name of a seagull (Belon, Hist. Nat. Oyseaux, 1555), with which it has by some been confused.

The American quail or partridge; also called bob-white; in plural the various species of the sub-family Odontophorinæ or Ortyginæ, to which this belongs.
