Wisconsin, and Tonantins, Amazonas,* from all of which it slightly differs by 
having the throat more mixed with whitish, and the bases of the jugular feathers 
dull cinereous. Otherwise it agrees, in size and coloration, with females and 
immature males. Count Berlepsch, to whom it has been submitted, also declares 
it to be O. agilis. 
Allianca is the most southerly winter record of the species. An adult female 
was obtained, in 1884, by Gustav Garlepp at Tonantins, on the Rio Solimoéns.*

No. 498. ¢ ad., Calama, 31. viii. 1907.—Wing 68; tail 55; bill 124 mm. 
“Tris brown, feet light brown, bill black.” 
This bird agrees with specimens from Nanegal and other localities in Western 
Ecuador in having the supraloral and superciliary stripe deep fawa-colour, and the 
lower parts somewhat lighter fawn with the middle of the belly largely white. It 
differs, however, by the clearer olive-green back, and by the rather wider dusky 
apical band of the rectrices, which besides is strongly tinged with olive-green as in 
B.f. fulvicauda. Without additional material it is, of course, impossible to say if 
these differences are of any value; but the close resemblance of the Calama bird in 
itself is a remarkable fact, since in Eastern Ecuador (and probably in other districts 
of Upper Amazonia) we meet with the well-characterized B. f. fulvicauda (see Le. 
pp. 652-3). The latter appears to have a peculiarly restricted range. All specimens 
examined by me (two in the British Museum, one in Mus. H. v. Berlepsch) are 
from Eastern Ecuador, but Spix’s type is supposed to have been obtained on the 
Rio Solimoéns or one of its branches (Ica or Caqueta). 
On the other hand, B. f. semicervinus is widely distributed in Colombia and 
Western Ecuador. I have before me twenty-seven specimens from Bogotdé, W. 
Colombia (Juntas, Jiménez, Sipi, province Chocd), and Ecuador (Nanegal, Paramba, 
Cachabi, Chimbo, ete.), belonging to the Tring and Munich collections. The 
late Dr. Sharpe t referred two do from Hastern Peru (Santa Craz, Chyavetas) 
to B. uropygialis (= fulvicauda), but I doubt the correctness of this identification, 
for these birds are more likely to belong with B. f. semicervinus or with 
B. f. poliothrix Berl. & Stolzm.t
