throat is decidedly darker, more ferrnginons. It may be added that a good 

 series of skius from Surinam, lately received in the Tring Mnsenm, is iu no way 

 distingaishable from Amaznnian specimens.

U. brklgesi is merely U. andaecola redescribed. By neglecting the typical 

 locality. Dr. Sclater considered the Peruvian U. serrana the same as U. andaecola, 

 while some Bolivian skins (typical andaecola) were referred to a new species 1 



Through the kindness of Mons. Onstalet, I was enabled to compare two of 

 D'Orbigny's types (Nos. 2 and 3) with the original specimens of U. Ijrid(/csi. As 

 was to be expected from the localities, they are absolutely identical. 



U. serrana Tacz., however, is a very distinct species, easily known from 

 U. andaecola by its dark earthy-browu head and mantle, without any rufous tinge, 

 ljull'y-white strijies on the forehead, and by the pale striatious on tiie foreneck 

 and breast. 



The synonymy of the two species is the following :
