Remarks. I have had no specimens of iY. erythrops for comparison ; but 

 Sclater's original diagnosis, as well as Sharpe's description of an adult 

 female, in the British Museum, t indicate a bird so different from mine 

 as to leave no doubt of the specific distinctness of the two. 



Porzana albigularis (Lawr.). 

 Two adult males from Palomina, May. 



Columba albilinea Bp. 

 One adult female from Paloniina. 



Falco sparverius Linn. 



Tw r o adults, male from Palomina, June 22 ; female from San Miguel, 

 June 14. 



Conurus wagleri Gray. 

 Seventeen adults, males and females, from Palomina and San Miguel. 



Pionus soididus (Linn.). 

 One adult male from San Miguel, June 17, 1898. 



Crotophaga ani Linn. 

 One female from Palomina. 



Aulacorhamphus calorhynchus Gould.

 species as Santa Marta. It is really Merida, Venezuela. 



Mr. Brown has now sent seven specimens. This series shows great va- 



*Note made by Mr. Brown from the fresh specimen.

 as this measurement is only approximate in any case, I give it for what it 

 is worth.
