 Differs from other Brazilian females by lacking the roundish bntf spots on 

 the middle of breast and abdomen. This is doubtless an individual character. 



137. Colaptes campestris (Vioill.). 



Picus campestris Vieillot, Nour. Did. xxvi. p. lol (1818. — ex Azara, No. 253 : Paraguay).

 January 1906. 



Agreeing with specimens from S. Paulo. In my revision of Spi.\' types, p. 603, 

 I mentioned that the Munich Museum had received C. agricola Malh. from 

 Paraguay, while Salvadori* recorded C. campestris from the same country. The 

 Tring Museum possesses one of Borelli's specimens (« of Salvadori's list; ¥, 

 Valenzuela, No. 24), which also turns out to be the white-throated species, 

 C. agricola. So far as I can see from published records, C. campestris has not 

 been observed in recent years in Paraguay, though the description of Azara ujion 

 which Vieillot's name is based seems to refer to the black-throated species. t
