6. ATTLIA. 355 



edging ; tail dark cinereous, tipped with pale rufous : beneath paler 

 cinereous, middle of belly ornamented by bright rufous feathers, 

 which are tipped with black spots ; crissum pale reddish ochraceous, 

 with slight occasional black spots ; patch on each side of breast 

 reddish ochraceous or yellow, with similar occasional black spots ; 

 under wing-coverts white, faintly barred with blackish ; bill and 

 feet blackish brown : whole length 8-5 inches, wing 4'3, tail 35. 

 Female similar, but without any black spots below ; patch on sides 

 of breast yellow or ochraceous. 



Hab. Cayenne, Guiana. Amazonia, Ecuador, and S.E. Brazil. 



I was formerly of opinion that the Guianan and S.E. Brazilian 

 forms of this species might be distinct. But with the present 

 series before me, I can find no evidence of this being the case. 

 Fully plumaged males from these different localities present no 

 material differences. The side-patches vary from yellow to ochra- 

 ceous red in specimens from both localities.
