 104. Elaenia parvirostris Pelz. 



Elainea panirostrii' Pelzeln, Ziir Ornilh. Bini. ii. pp. IU7, 178 (I8t)H — Curytiba (I'jp'') ; Borba, Rio 

 Madeira ; Barcellos, R. Negro). 



No. 1046. (? ad., Maniins, Rio Machados, 21. vii. 1908. " Iris and feet black, 

 bill black, lower maiidiiile llesli-coloiir." — Wing 78 ; tail 68 ; bill In mm. 



Larger than any other specimen I have seen, but in coloration typical of 

 E. parnrostris. This species has a wide range, being fjund from Southern Brazil 

 northwards to British Gaiana, Venezuela, and Eastern Colombia (Bogota coll.). 



[105. Elaenia ruficeps Pelz. 



Elainea riificepi Pelzeln, Zur Orn. Bras. ii. pp. 103, 179 (1868. — Borba). 



Right bank : Borba (Natterer). 



This species is also recorded from Sonthern French Guiana (Oyapoc), and from 

 the Mernme Hills, in British Guiana ; but specimens from these places require 

 careful comparison with the type in the Vienna Museum.]

MiiAdrripnra GaimanJii D'Orbigny, V'^'/cr/e, IJi<i;in.r, p. 320 (betiveon 18,38 — 1847.~Yuracares, East 



Bolivia). 

 Elainea elegniis Pelzeln, /.f. pp. 107, 179 (Engenho do Gama, Mattogrosso ; Borba, etc.). 



Right bank : Borba (Natterer). 



Specimens from the Rio Madeira district agree with one of D'Orbigny's typical 

 examples for the loan of which I am indebted to my friend M. M^negaux, of the 

 Paris Museum.] 



[106a. Elaenia flavivertex Scl. 



Elainea flavivertex Sclater, Proc. Zool. Soc. Land. 1887. p. 49 (1887. — Upper Ucayali, Eastern 



Peru). 

 E. implacens (nee Sclater) Pelzeln, Zur Orn. Bras. ii. p. 108 (part. : Borba). 



Right bank : Borba (Natterer). 



A single young male, partly in nestling plumage, was obtained by Natterer 

 February 7, 1830.— Wing 58 ; tail 50 ; bill 10 mm. 



Although young, it unquestionably belongs to the present species. This is 

 clearly indicated by the dull olive-green back, the short tail, the broad bill, and 

 particularly by the newly grown greater upper wing-coverts being distinctly tii)ped 

 with light yellow. Count Berlepsch agrees to my identification. E. Jiadcertex 

 is new to the Brazilian fauna. Hitherto it had been recorded from Eastern Peru 

 (Upper Ucayali, Elvira, Nauta), Venezuela (Munduapo, Upper Orinoco), and French 

 Guiana (Uoche-Marie).]
