Pitylus cayanensis Pelzeln, J.c. p. 221 (Borba), 
Right bank: Borba (Natterer). 
The range of this form extends, in the east, to Pard, and to the north as far 
as Cayenne, British Guiana, and Marabitanas (apper Rio Negro). In North-East 
Brazil (Pernambuco) it is represented by P. c. frontalis Hellm.,* in South-Eastern 
Brazil (from Bahia to Rio de Janeiro) by P. c. brasiliensis (Cab.).f]

Guiraca rothschildii E, Bartlett, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (6) vi. p. 168 (1890.—R. Carimang, British

Rio Madeira: Salto Girao, Borba (Natterer). 
Natterer’s specimens from the Rio Madeira, as well as those obtained near 
Engenho do Gama, Rio Guaporé, and at Marabitanas, upper Rio Negro, agree 
perfectly with typical Guianan birds. All records of C. cyanea from Amazonia and 
the Guianas refer to the present species, which is the only one found in those 
regions. I have examined examples from Cayenne, Brit. Guiana, Para, Orinoco 
(Munduapo, Caura), Teffé, North Peru (Samiria, Nauta, etc.), Rio Negro, Rio 
Madeira, etc. C. cyanea (Linn.) is restricted to Eastern Brazil, south of 
Pernambuco. | 
69. Oryzoborus angolensis brevirostris Berl. 
[Lowia angolensis Linnaeus, Syst. Nat. xii, 1, p. 303 (1766.—ex Edwards: “ Angola”—errore! We

Oryzoborus angolensis brevirostris Berlepsch, Nov. Zool. xv. p. 119 (1908.—Cayenne). 
Nos. 643, 669, 695. 33 ad., S. Isabel, Rio Preto, 8, 10, 14. x. 1907. “Iris 
brown, feet and bill black.”—Wing 59; tail 55, 56 mm. 
The specimens agree with others from Cayenne, Trinidad, and Eastern Ecuador 
(Napo). East Brazilian skins (Bahia, Rio de Janeiro) have larger, stouter bills, 
the lower parts of a clearer chestnut, and the alar speculam rather more extended. 
70. Sporophila lineola (Linn.). 
Lozia lineola Linnaeus, Syst, Nat. xii, 1. p. 304 (1766.—“ Asia” —errore !

Both with a broad white stripe along the middle of the forehead and crown, 
and with the under parts pure white, without trace of blackish cross-lines.
