stand as distinct, though I have seen specimens of the northern bird 

 which come very near to it. It is distinguishable by its larger size 

 and by the greater extent of the chestnut colour on the wing.

Abovo dark olive-brown ; head black ; superciliary stripe white ;

 tipped with black ; wings and tail blackish, outer margins of greater 

 part of primaries and inner secondaries rufous : beneath bright yel- 

 low, throat white ; under wing-coverts yellow, inner webs of wing- 

 feathers (except the apical portion) pale rufous ; bill and feet black : 

 whole length 5-5 inches, wing 3-2, tail 2-7. Female similar. 



Hah. From Panama southwards through Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, 

 Venezuela, and Guiana, to Lower Amazonia. 



I am now convinced that it is impossible to keep M. rufipennis, 

 Lawr., of Venezuela, separate, as Mr. Salvin and I have done in the 

 ' Xomenclator.' There are specimens from Ecuador which show 

 quite as much red on the wing. In Bogota skins of this variable 

 species the red is usually not so much developed.
