Count Salvadori* separated this Chrysotis from its near ally C. farinosa, from its 
wanting the yellow spot in the centre of the crown, the slightly brighter tint of its 
green colour, and its rather larger size, especially of the bill. 
It is the largest of the species of Chrysotis found within our limits, but occurs only 
in the eastern part of the State of Panama, though it has a rather wide range in 
South America.

This Chrysotis is very closely allied to the common C. ochrocephala of South America, 
but differs in several small points which Count Salvadori gives as follows * :—* Very 
much like C. ochrocephala, but smaller, and with the yellow of the head confined to 
the sinciput and extended to the frontal edge, where there is no glaucous-green colour ;_ 
the hairy feathers round the nostrils are partially golden; the vertex is tinged with 
glaucous green, and the thighs are yellow; bill yellowish, with the tip lead-colour.” 
Though not included in M‘Leannan’s collections made along the Line of the Panama 
Railway, C. panamensis appears to be far from uncommon in parts of Veragua, judging 
from the number of skins sent from there. It also occurs in trade collections sent 
from Bogota. 
Living tame birds may be seen in some numbers for sale both at Colon and Panama, and 
several specimens have reached the Gardens of the Zoological Society from time to time.
