LSii. Aulacorhamphus haematopyg^us ((iouid). 



Paramba, 35iiii I'ccf. " Iris red ; feet green." The. female is iiiuch smaller than 

 the male, and this jiroliably explains the great differences in size mentioned in 

 Cat. B. XIX. The key to this genus in the Cat. B. is faulty, as the species witli 

 green throats are, by mistake, among the section with white throats.

191. Trogon chionurus Scl. & Sal v. 



Cachavi, 500 feet. " Iris brown, eyelids pale blue ; bill bluish white ; feet 

 black." Mr. Rosenberg has also found this sjiecies on the Uio Dagua in West 

 ( 'olombia. 



I'.t2. Neomorphus radiolosus Salvin. 



A mule of this very rare (.'uckoo was obtained by Mr. Rosenberg's correspondent 

 in Paramba, at about 350(1 feet above the sea. The iris was found to be dark 

 brown ; feet bluish grey : bijl blackish, with bluish grey tip and mandible. Wing 

 170, tail about 24ii mm., tarsus 70. The local name is " Sainero," which means 

 companion of " Sainos," which are wild boar. The tj-pe of this species was obtained 

 at Intaj in Ecuador. 



193. Piaya cayana mehleri (Pp.). 



Specimens from Chimbo (looii feet) and Paramba (3500 feet) do not differ 

 from each other, and belong to a sulispecies which, I believe, must be termed as 

 above. It is, however, diflicult to make out the proper subspecific title of many ot 

 I he forms of Piaya. There are only two w(u-ks we can refer to at all, and those are 

 (abanis k Heine, .)/(«. Hein. IV. pp. .s2 If., and Allen in Bull. Amer. Mus. Nat. 

 Ili.tt. pp. 130 tf. All three, however, had a iini.r material, with regard to 

 the wide distribntion of these forms, before tliem. Tlic first-named authors 

 often had only one or two skins at their disposal, and disregarded older titles. 

 Professor Allen also had a very limited series, while Shelley in the Cat. B. Brit. 

 Af//.'<. XIX. ]). 373, lumped all the forms together, including P.mcxicana, which 

 Salvin sej)arated s])ecifically in- Bioloij. Centr. Amer. Ai;es II. p. 531. The 

 specimens collected by Kosenberg had the " iris crimson ; feet bluish grey, with 

 black claws and yellow soles ; beak pale yellow, with a greenish base."
