5. PYRRHUPHONIA. „ 



Type. 

 Pyrrhuphonia, J5p. C. R. sxxi. p. 423 (1850) P. Jamaica. 



This is likewise a monotypic form which, I think, may be con- 

 veniently separated from the bulk of the Euphonias. It has a much 

 thickened bill, as Hypopliaa, but shorter and not so much hooked 

 at the extremity. There are slight indications of a single tooth. 



This form is peculiar to Jamaica, where it feeds principally on 

 fruit and builds a domed nest amongst the parasitic Tillandsice ou 

 the trees {cf. Gosse, B. Jamaica, p. 240).
