3. S. c. nanodes Berl. and Stolzm. P. Z. S., 1892, p. 388. 

 (Type loc, Lima, Peru.) 



This is the bird identified by Peale and Cassin as grallaria, aud 

 they have been followed provisionally by Ridgway. On geograph- 

 ical grounds it is extremely doubtful that this is identical with the 

 Brazilian form, and I think the authors have done well to sep- 

 arate it. 



The U. S. Exploring Expedition specimens are much bleached, 

 but otherwise agree with Berlepsch's description, 



4. S. c. tolimae Stone. 



(Type loc., Tolima, Colombia.) 



Smaller and darker than the last, as above described. In 

 nanodes the white on the outer tail feathers generally extends across 

 as distinct bands and the brown bands are of nearly uniform width 

 throughout. In tolimic, however, the brown bands are wider in 

 the middle, and confluent along the shaft, separating the white into 

 rounded spots. 



On the middle tail feathers, the buff^ cross bands are extremely 

 narrow in tolimce (.10-. 12 in.), and do not reach the outer mar- 

 gins of the feathers, while in nanodes they are broad (.20-25 in. ), 

 and extend to the margin. 



5. S. brachyptera Richm. 



(Type loc, Margarita Isl., Venezuela.) 

 An island form allied to the last.
