Right bank : Borba (Natterer, Hoffmanns). 



As pointed out by me {I.e.), the birds from Borba have the light markings 

 of the crown and upper back rather brighter buff, and the belly more suffused 

 with rusty, than typical Para e.xamples. However, 1 have lately seen several 

 specimens from Pard, and Villa Braga, left bank of the Tapaj6z, which agreed in 

 these respects with those from Borba.]

The series from Marmellos (left bank) agrees in every detail with several 

 topotypical Peruvian skins (iu the Munich Museum) and others from Eastern 

 Ecuador, etc. The bill is pale greyish yellow, with the basal third of the upper 

 mandible only dusky ; the pale markings on the head and upper back are deep buff, 

 those of the hindneck being conspicuously edged laterally with blackish ; the throat 

 bright buff, the ground-colour of the lower parts deep ochraceous ; the feathers of 

 the foreueck have irregular blackish or dark brown edges, etc. 



The specimens from Calama and Allianca, as well as the adult male obtained 

 by Natterer at Salto Theotonio — i.e. those from the right bank — are decidedly 

 intermediate between guttatotcles and eytoni. The light markings are creamy white
