Suhspecific characters. — Similar to Basileuterus culwworus culici- 

 vorvs, but upper parts, sides of the head, etc., less grayish, more 

 greenish (near yellowish olive), scarcely different from the color of 

 the median stripe posteriorly. 



Measurements. — Male: Wing, 59-66 (average, 62) ; tail, 50-57 (53) ; 

 bill, 9.5-10.5 (10) ; tarsus, 19-20 (19.5). Female : Wing, 55-62 (58.5) ; 

 tail, 46-54 (50.5) ; bill, 9.5-10.5 (10) ; tarsus, 18.5-20 (19). 



Range. — Costa Rica (except northwestern j^^rt) to western Panama, 

 chiefly in the Subtropical Zone. 



BemarJiS. — Baird was the first author to notice that Costa Rican 

 examples of this species were not quite the same as those from 

 Mexico and Guatemala, and suggested that season might have 3ome- 

 thinc to do with the difference. Salvin and Godman also discussed
