“Tris pale brown, feet light green or greyish green, bill black or dark grey.” 
The series substantially corroborates what I have said Zc. The under parts 
are invariably deep ochraceous or tawny ochraceons, as in Gnianan and Caura 
specimens, but the upper tail-coverts are either of the same dark rnfous brown 
shade as the back or very slightly more reddish. The young bird is considerably 
paler and duller, both above and below. Two eggs, taken with the parent bird 
(No. 610), are of a reddish clay-colour and measure 38 x 29, 36 x 264 mm.

The four examples from Borba obtained by Natterer are practically identical 
with the type in the Berlin Museum, said to be from “ Pard ” (cf. my remarks /.c. 
p. 703). The adult female secured by Mr. Hoffmanns at Humaytha has the black 
cross-markings of the back rather broader, thereby forming the passage to C. a. 
radiatus (Gray), which represents C. a. adspersus on the banks of the Rio Guaporé, 
one of the headwaters of the Madeira (see Lc. pp. 704-5). ]

This species is hitherto only known from Parad and the Rio Madeira, ranging 
southwards as far as Cidade de Mattogrosso, Rio Guaporé. |
