o See p. 758. 



b One specimen (the type). 



c I have not seen a specimen from either Chitra or Calovevora; Init since Salvin and 

 Godman (Biol. Centr.-Am., Aves, ii, 116) refer to specimens from these two localities 

 as "darker than typical examples from Vera Paz " I have little doul)t that they belong- 

 here.
