This sjiecies has not yet been recorded from I he north coa.st of Vene/.nela, and 

 I greatly donbt, therefore, whether the siieciniens from llemedios, W. Colomliia, 

 referred to 7'. riolarf's by Grant,* are correctly determined.

 1 ?, Clnignanas, May. We have also a series of 14 specimens from Tobago whicli 

 are jierfectly similar. As a rule, the birds from tlie islands are rather darker on 

 the abdomen Iban those fonnd on the nortli coast of Veneznela (Cnmana, Valencia, 

 Puerto C'abello) and in the Orinoco valley ; but some from Puerto Gabello are not 

 different, one being even more intensely coloured than the darkest from Trinidad. 

 Hence I prel'er, for the j)resent at least, to include all under the name riiticnuilii. 

 The above observations are based iijion a splendid series (d' (14 adults in the Tring 

 Museum.
