Formicarius pallidus, Later. Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sc. ii. p. 288 

 (Yucatan). 



Above brown, head rather darker, rump rather brighter; lores 

 black, with a white spot : beneath paler ; sides of neck rufous ; 

 throat black, bordered by a rufous neckband ; middle of belly 

 tinged with cinereous; crissum pale rufous; broad bar across the 

 base of the remigcs on their inner webs pale fulvous ; bill black ; 

 feet brown : whole length 7 inches, wing 3-6, tail 2-2. Female 

 similar. 



Hah. Southern Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. 



The distinct rufous band which borders the black throat at once 

 distinguishes this species. The Yucatan form (F. jj«?/i<:?«s) lias the 

 belly much paler, but Guatemalan specimens are intermediate.
