Most of the ne'W Peruvian birds discovered by Jelski had been described by Cabanis iu 

 J.f. O., 1873, and by Taczanowski in P. Z. S., 1874, when the latter drew up the jsresent im- 

 portant article, giving a complete list of the 490 species secured by the intrepid and inde- 

 fatigable traveller during the three years he passed in exploring the narrow but interesting 

 region comprised between Lima, Huanta, Monterico, Farma, and Junin, which is situated iu 

 the Cordilleras, and therefore presents a marvellously rich avifauna, composed of species 

 living from torrid regions to the line of perpetual snow. The following 19 species are here 

 described as new: — Anthus brevirostris, A. calcaratus, p. 507; Conirostruin cyancum, p. 512;
