The Orinoco specimens in their coloration seem to be somewhat intermediate 

 between trne ruficauda from Bogota and Z. r. rhiaceoru/a Ridgw. from Curacao, 

 but they are evidently nearer to the latter.

These specimens seem generally slightly richer below than others from Bogota, 

 but we have not been able to compare a good series. L. insularis BicLm. (cotype 

 in Tring) agrees well with the Orinoco specimens. Perhaps the latter name should 

 be acce])ted for this form.
