Hah. Bolivia, Peru, Eastern Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela. 



The description is that of the typical form from Bolivia. It is 

 generally possible to distinguish three other local forms, which I can 

 only regard as subspecies. In Northern Peru C. c. cceruleocephaJa 

 shows a strong purplish tinge on the throat ; in Colombia C. c. gra- 

 nadensis does not exhibit the coppery glance on the wings ; aud in 

 Venezuela C. c. liannahia has the beUy black without any purplish 

 tinge.
