A single immature ? from Para, 24. xi. 05. No. 201. " Iris light yellow." 



In addition to it, the Tring Museum possesses an adult <S, collected by Prof. 

 Steere at Bemfica, near Pard, July 25. The iris is marked as " dark yellow." 



It agrees in the whiteness of the under])arts with a series from British Guiana, 

 Bogota coll., and Caicara, Orinoco River. 



Specimens from Panama, Chiriqui, and Western Ecuador are much darker 

 underneath, and have been described by me as Accipifer bicolor sckistochlamys.] 



This is the first record of the species for the district of Para, though it was 

 collected near Santarem X by Riker. The ? ad. obtained by Natterer near Barra 

 do Rio Negro, and determined by von Pelzeln as A. pilcatus, § belongs likewise 

 to this species, as I have satisfied myself by examining the specimen.
