NOVITATES ZOOLOOICAE XXI. 1914. 165 



D'Orliigny's figure is altogether raislcading, the abdomen being too dark, the rnmp 

 much too rufous, the wiug-bands exaggerated in extent and intensity. As a matter 

 of fact, the (marked) type has just u faint shade of russet on the rump like the 

 other specimens, the under parts are of exactly the same pale cinnamomeous tinge 

 as in the type of 0. p. pacifca, while the light buif apical spots to the greater wing- 

 coverts are but slightly indicated. 



In worn plumage the back becomes more greyish browu, the abdomen paler, 

 more bnffy cinnamon, aud the buffy tips to the wing-coverts disappear completely. 

 The bird from Jnjuy (No. 4) in the collection of Senor Miguel Lillo, of Tucumdn, 

 diflers from the Bolivian ones only in having the rump conspicuously tinged with 

 bnif}' brown.

Adult. — Differs from the typical race by its larger size, much darker, sooty 

 brown npper parts, dingy grey throat, decidedly deeper cinnamon-brown belly, 

 fulvous (instead of whitish) under tail-coverts, darker grey axillaries, and by 

 lacking the buff apical tips to the greater upper wing-coverts.

Ois. — The s])ecimeiis from (.)llachea which may be regarded as topotypical 

 agree in coloration with the Central Peruvian skins, but are slightly smaller. One 

 of them (No. 2) shows a distinct greyish hue ou the upper parts. The type was 

 probably a similarly coloured example, since Messrs. Sclater and Salvin in their 

 description of (>. polionota call the dorsal surface " ciiierea."
