This specimen agrees pevfectl}' with several others from the vicinity of Rio 

 de Janeiro, and differs slightly from a series of skins collected in the state of 

 S. Paulo. 



Topoty]iicul examples of D. t. turdina from Bahia liave the back bright 

 ochraceons brown, especially the ramp ; and all the nnderface is strongly suffused 

 with ochraceons. The throat is but a little paler than chest and abdomen, and 

 there are only a few indistinct bnff shaft-lines on the foreneck. The S. Paulo birds 

 differ at a glance in being much duller, olive-brown above and below, with scarcely 

 any ochreons tinge on the abdomen ; the throat is conspicuously j)aler than the 

 rest of the nnder-parts, ochraceons buff, and the feathers of the foreneck show 

 distinct light shaft-lines of bright bnff. 



The male from Goyaz, as well as a jiair from Rio, are of a purer brown on 

 both the upper and under parts, lacking the olive hue to be seen in skins from 

 S. Paulo. The throat is scarcely paler than the chest, and there are but a very 

 few buff stripes on the foreneck. Another specimen from Rio, however, is almost 

 identical with those from S. Paulo. Until better series are available for comparison, 

 the birds from Rio and Southern Goyaz may be referred to D. t. enalincia.
