Genus EUBUCCO Bonaparte

 41920. Adult (sex not indicated). Peru. Collected by Johann J. von 



Tschudi. Received from the Neuchatel Museum. 

 This form was based upon an unknown number of specimens. That there 

 were more than one is shown by the facts that von Tschudi's colored plate 

 was evidently taken from an example other than ours (see Friedmann and 

 Deignan, Zoologica 27:51, 1942) and that Sclater (Ibis, p. 190, 1861) 

 examined at least one of von Tschudi's birds then deposited in the collection 

 of the Bremen Museum.
