Chloronerpes flaeigularis Riker & Chapman, Auk, 1891, p. 30 (Santarem). 



No. 431. (c?) imm. (without tbo red malar stripe), Itaitnba, 12. i. 06. "Iris 

 brown." 



This specimen, like the one from Prata previously sent by Mr. Hoffmanns, 

 has a very strong and large bill, but this appears to be merely individual variation, 

 as another 3 from Para does not differ in this respect from typical examples of 

 Cayenne, British Guiana, etc. 



59. Melanerpes cruentatus (Bodd.) 



Picus cruentatus Boddaert, Tabl. PI. ml. p. 43 (1783.— ex Daubenton, Pl.enl. 091, fig. 2. — Cayenne). 

 Nos. 471. 472. S ? ad., Itaitnba, 20. i. 06. "Iris yellow." 

 Both are typical, having broad white superciliaries and a distinct golden-yellow 



nuchal band. 



We received also an adult 3, collected by Prof. Steere at Marea de Legna, 



Para, which agrees in every way with that from Santarem. 



00. Veniliornis ruficeps ruficeps (Spix). 



Picus ruficeps Spix, Av. Bros. i. (1824) p. 03 pi. lvi. fig. 2, 3 (" in sylvis fluminis Amazonum"). 

 Chloronerpes affinis seh/si (nee Malherbe ! ) Chapman & Riker, Au!; 1891, p. 30 (Santarem). 



Nos. 442, 476. c? ad., ? ad., Itaitnba, 13, 21. i. 06. "Iris brown." 



We possess also an adult S from Benevides, Para, collected by Prof. Steere. 



The three examples represent typical J", r. ruficeps. Cfr. the detailed account in my 



revision of Spix' types, p. 600 ff. 



61. Celeus jumana (Spix). 



Cfr. Nnr. Zool. xii. (1905) p. 301. 



No. 479. (? ad., Itaitnba, 22. i. 06. " Iris red, bill yellowish green." 



Not different from Par;i specimens except by having the upper tail-coverts rufous. 



62. Crocomorphus flavus (P. L. 8. Mull.) snbsp, 



Pirn* flams P. L. S. Mliller, Natursyst. Suppl. p. 91 (1770. — ex Daubenton, PI. ml. 509.— Cayenne). 

 Celeus citrinus Riker & Chapman, Auk, 1891, p. 31 (Santarem). 



No. 443. ? ad., Itaitnba, 15. i. 06. "Iris red." 



Mr. Chapman has already alluded to the differences of the Amazonian birds, 

 when compared with typical C./hrns of Cayenne, and very likely they constitute 

 a distinct form. The material at my command, however, would not justify any 

 separation, as I have only four specimens from Amazonia for comparison. Yet it 

 should be mentioned that they differ from a large series of skins from British Guiana 

 and the Orinoco region by having very little or no rufous at all on the wings. Iu 

 this respect they seem to agree with the Bahia form, C.f. subflavus Scl. & Salv., of 

 which, unfortunately, no specimens are available. 



63. Campephilus trachelopyrus (Malh.) 



Cfr. Nov. Zool. xii. (1905) p. 300. 



CeopMoeus tracheolqpyrrhus (sic) Riker & Chapman, Auk, 1891, p. 30 (Santarem).
