Very closely allied to M. pulcher, but larger in size, and of a 

 darker fulvous on the breast.

Myiobius subochraceus, Scl. P. Z. S. 1887, p. 50. 



Above dull olive-green, rather more ochraceous on the rump ; 

 wings blackish, with broad tips to both rows of coverts and external 

 margins of secondaries pale fulvous ; tail dark cinereous : beneath 

 bright ochraceous, more yellowish in the middle of the belly ; under 

 wing- coverts pale ochraceous ; bill dark brown ; feet black : whole 

 length 4-7 inches, wing 2-5, tail 2-6. 



Hab. Bolivia. 



The specimen described is apparently a female of a third species 

 of the group of M. pulcher, distinguished by its large size and the 

 uniform ochraceous colouring below. There is just a faint appear- 

 ance of bright colour on the crown, so that the male would probably 

 have a concealed orange crest. The bill is rather narrower and more 

 elongated than in the two preceding species. 



The second specimen (b), which I have temporarily placed here, 

 is probably the young of a different species. It is more of an 

 olive-green above, and the form of the bill comes quite close to 

 M. pulcher.

Myiobius roraima?, Salt: et Godm. Ibis, 1883, p. 207 ; Salvin, Ibis,

Above olive-brown ; head with a concealed reddish crest ; wings 

 blackish, two broad bars across the wing-coverts and external 

 margins of outer secondaries rufous ; tail brown : beneath pale yel- 

 lowish ; breast and sides slightly freckled with cinereous ; under 

 wing-coverts white ; inner margins of wing-feathers cinnamo- 

 meous ; upper mandible brown, lower whitish ; feet dark brown : 

 whole length 5 - 2 inches, wing 2*6, tail 2'5. Female similar, but red 

 crest absent or but slightly indicated. 



Hab. Interior of British Guiana. 



A very distinct species, perhaps most nearly allied to M. ncevius, 

 but larger and of quite a different colour below.
