104. Elaenia parvirostris Pelz. 
Elainea parvirostris Pelzeln, Zur Ornith. Bras. ii, pp. 107, 178 (1868,—Curytiba (type) ; Borba, Rio 
Madeira ; Barcellos, R. Negro). 
No. 1046. dad., Maruins, Rio Machados, 21. vii. 1908. “Iris and feet black, 
bill black, lower mandible flesh-colour.”—Wing 78 ; tail 68; bill 10 mm. 
Larger than any other specimen I have seen, but in coloration typical of 
£. parvirostris. This species has a wide range, being found from Southern Brazil 
northwards to British Guiana, Venezuela, and Eastern Colombia (Bogota coll.). 
[105. Elaenia ruficeps Pelz. 
Elainea ruficeps Pelzeln, Zur Orn. Bras. ii. pp. 108, 179 (1868.—Borba), 
Right bank : Borba (Natterer), 
This species is also recorded from Southern French Guiana (Oyapoc), and from 
the Merumé Hills, in British Guiana; but specimens from these places require 
careful comparison with the type in the Vienna Museum.] 
(106. Elaenia gaimardii gaimardii (D’Orb.). 
Muscicapara Gaimardii D'Orbigny, Voyage, Oiseaux, p. 326 (between 1838—1847.--Yuracareés, East 
Bolivia). 
Elainea elegans Pelzeln, 1.c, pp. 107, 179 (Engenho do Gama, Mattogrosso ; Borba, etc.). 
Right bank : Borba (Natterer). 
Specimens from the Rio Madeira district agree with one of D’Orbigny’s typical 
examples for the loan of which I am indebted to my friend M. Ménégaux, of the 
Paris Museum. } 
[106a. Elaenia flavivertex Scl. 
Elainea flavivertexr Sclater, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond, 1887. p. 49 (1887.—Upper Ucayali, Eastern 
Pern). 
E. implacens (nec Sclater) Pelzeln, Zur Orn, Bras. ii. p. 108 (part. : Borba). 
Right bank: Borba (Natterer). 
A single young male, partly in nestling plumage, was obtained by Natterer 
February 7, 1830.—Wing 58 ; tail 50; bill 10 mm. 
Although young, it unquestionably belongs to the present species. This is 
clearly indicated by the dull olive-green back, the short tail, the broad bill, and 
particularly by the newly grown greater upper wing-coverts being distinctly tipped 
with light yellow. Count. Berlepsch agrees to my identification. LE. flavivertex 
is new to the Brazilian fauna. Hitherto it had been recorded from Kastern Peru 
(Upper Ucayali, Elvira, Nauta), Venezuela (Munduapo, Upper Orinoco), and French 
Guiana (Roche-Marie). ]
