Sumichrast states that this species is found in the Gineta Mountains in Chiapas !° to 
the southward of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. ‘This is the most northern record we 
have of this species. In Guatemala it must be a very local bird, for we only 
once met with it when a specimen was brought to us when staying at San Gerdnimo, 
3000 feet above sea-level. Yet Gould speaks of it as common in that country, whence 
he had received many specimens. In the Republic of Salvador, Mr. Richardson 
secured a good series of skins between February and April 1891, both on the sea-coast 
at La Libertad, and on the slopes of the Volcan de San Miguel, a little distance in the 
interior. It also occurs at Momotombo on the western side of the Lake of Managua, 
and on the shores of the Gulf of Nicoya in Costa Rica. This seems to be the extreme 
limit of its southern range, for in the State of Panama we find no trace of it.
