 olivaceous. 



Both differ from the typical species of Automolus by their straighter, slenderer 

 bill.

In addition I have before me Natterer's specimens from Borba and Para, an 

 adult female from the Tapajoz, and a male obtained by Miss Snethiage at S. Antonio 

 do Praia, near Para. The series differs very markedly from A. i. infaacatus and 

 A. i. cercicnlis by having the pilenm dark greyish olive (instead of bright olive- 

 brown or russet). The range of A. i. paraensi.^ comprises that tract of country south 

 of the main valley of the Amazons lying between the Rio Madeira (Borba, Calama) 

 and Pard. In Nov. Zool. xii. p. 279, I also referred to specimens from Mandos 

 (Barra do Rio Negro), bnt this was a mistake, there being none from this locality 

 in the Vienna Museum.

Identical with Cayenne and Venezuelan (Caura) specimens. This species is 

 widely distributed all over the Amazonian forest region from the Gaianas to 

 Eastern Peru and Ecuador. Salto do Girao, on the Rio Madeira, is the most 

 southerly locality yet recorded. Mr. Hoffmanns obtained it also at Itaitiiba, left 

 bank of the Tapaj6z.t
