Helioihrix auritus auritus is said to live only on the eastern 

 side of the Andes mountains (see f. i. Hartert: TrochilidcF 

 p. 187). The locality recorded above is, on the western side, 

 and it is more than probable, that in the latter locality lives 

 a larger race as the length of the wing of the present specimen 

 measures fully 69 mm. in length (against 61 recorded for the 

 typical race).
