from its ])lninage, the bird seems to be quite adnlt I In three specimens (Nos. 

 2163, 2135, Ksr)3) tlie bill is entirely black ; No. 1852 has the basal half of the 

 lower mandible pale brownish; and in Nos. 21G4 and 2165 the latter is entirely 

 yellowish white. 



The types of E. affinis in the Halle Musenm and Natterer's specimens at 

 Vienna all have more or less yellow at the base of the tail-feathers, which is 

 altogether absent in the type of E. bahiae, still unique in the Berlepsch Museum.

Cf. Journ. f. (Jniitli. 1905. pp. 3-5, where tlie full synonymy of the species 

 is given. The descri])tiou of M. moih'Ma Wied also refers undoubtedly to this bird. 



In Ridgway's Birds of Xorth and Middle America iv. 1907. p. 42(1, the 

 distribution of S. f. fasciatus is stated to extend from " Colombia to South-eastern 

 Brazil . . . ," the occurrence in Colombia being apparently based on S. incanescens 

 (nee Wied) Salvin & Godman, Ibis, 1880. p. 124 (Minca, Santa Marta). Berlepsch 

 and Helhnayr,* however, have pointed out that this specimen was wrongly 

 identified, being referable to quite a different species — viz. Phijllomyias griseiceps 

 (Scl. & Salv.), widely distributed in the mountainous parts of North-western South 

 America. The range of S.f. fasciatus is given in our paper. I.e. p. 5.

These specimens agree in colour and size with those obtained by Natterer at 

 Engenho do Cap. Gama, Mattogrosso,t which were kindly lent for examination by 

 Dr. Lorenz. The series differs from typical examples from Cayenne, British 

 Guiana, Surinam, and the Parii district merely by rather larger size. The upper 

 parts are generally rather darker, less olive, but this is not quite constant.
