Five specimens in National Museum collection : one from Costa Rica* 

 (Talamauca) ; two from Panama, and two from Guayaquil. In addition 

 to these there has been examined in this connection a mounted specimen 

 in the Lafresnaye collection, one of the alleged tyi)es of D. atrirostris 

 Lafr. & D'Orb., but without doubt the specimen npon which the range 

 of that species was subsequently, but erroneously, extended by Lafres- 

 naye to Colombia.
