^ Two specimens, from Temax and Izalam, Yucatan. Two specimens, from Guate- 

 mala and Belize, British Honduras, respectively, which I refer, at least i^rovision- 

 ally, to this form, measure as follows: 



The Guatemala specimen, which is without definite locality, agrees minutely in 

 coloration with the Yucatan specimens, except that the gray of the throat is very 

 slightly deeper. That from Belize is intermediate in coloration between the present 

 form and true E. spodocepliala (to which Count von Berlepsch referred it), and per- 

 haps should be placed with the latter rather than with the Y^ucatan race. A larger 

 series may show that instead of being only two forms there are in reality three, the 

 birds from Guatemala and Honduras constituting an unnamed subspecies. 



^ Four specimens, from Boquete, Chiriqui. 



^Although Count von Berlepsch gives the habitat of this form as Veragua or 

 "Chiriqui in Veragua," his specimens were all from Chiriqui.
