' [This specimen is immature, and .so different from the adnlts of .any of the known 

 species that I am unable to identify it. In color it somewhat resembles Suhlegatus 

 glahcr, but the wing bars are tinged with biiffy brown instead of white. — C. W. R.] 



-[A specimen with a slight coronal patch, marked female, agrees in this respect 

 with several females collected in Trinidad by Mr. Chapman. This example is very 

 close to Triniilad birds, but is darker green on the upper parts, the wings are less 

 brown, the wing bars are lighter, the ear-coverts nnd orbital ring are clearer yellow, 

 and the abdomen is also clearer and lighter yellow. These <lifferences are not ver)- 

 pronounceil, however. The type female from Tobago is somewhat lighter on the 

 back than Trinidad examjiles, and the latter bear the s;ime relation to the Laguayra 

 specimen. The last named is the farthest removed from /'. luytitaceuH from IJrazil, 

 and also from the type of insularw. — C. \V. K.J
