N.B. — Siiecimens from Hnambo agree with the Bolivian ones. Having never 

 seen Ecnadorian birds, I cannot sa\- whether they have been correctly referred to 

 the present form. In the Chanchamayo district, Central Pern, a nearly allied 

 species, M. spodiogastra Berl. & Stok.,* takes its place.

Right bank : Borba (Natterer). This is the most southerly locality from 

 which the species has been recorded. Miss .Snetblage,t lately, secured a male 

 at Villa Braga, on the left bank of the Tapajoz. It is common in Cayenne, 

 Surinam, and British Gniana. Mr. Hoffmanns sent a female from Obidos, north 

 side of the Amazons.]

" Iris greyish Ijrown or brown, feet plumbeous or black, naked space roand the 

 eye yellowish green. Bill black, lower mandilile grey in the females." 



Mr. Hoffmanns now sent ns a fine series of this species, which he had discovered 

 on his first expedition to the Rio Madeira in 1906. Adnlt males have the top of 

 the head and crest deep black, the back very pale (greyish) olive, and the abdomen 

 slate-grey with a slight brownish tinge on flanks and crissum. In immature birds 

 the forehead and crest are more or less mixed with chestnut, and the back as well
