This bird agrees with a series from Surinam, while r>ogot!'i skins liave the eap 

 of a darker, more brownish tinge. E\amiiles from the Orinoco valley and from 

 the Canra lliver present a large amonnt of variation in the colour of the crown. 

 lu some of them it is quite as dark as in Bogotii skins, but others are scarcely 

 distinguishable from those of Surinam and Para. 



If the latter represent (>. napacinn Hidgw.,tl doubt the jiossibility of separating 

 it from O. p. pusillum.

This specimen is fully as large as examjiles of true C. olicacrii.'i from Bahia, 

 and differs only in having the fulvous margins to the upper wing-coverts rather paler 

 and narrower. This slight diH'erence should lie confirmed by a larger series before 

 sej)arating the Para form.

This example agrees perfectly with a large series from Brit. Guiana, Surinam 

 and the Orinoco region. Tlu! chin and throat are always strongly suft'iised with 

 whitish, and the belly is of a pale yellow, slightly underlaid with greyish on 



the chest.
