FRINGILLID^. 



Adult female. Different from the male. General colour above dark 

 ochreous brown, slightly more reddish on the lower back, rump, and 

 upper tail-coverts ; lesser and median wing-caverts like the back, the 

 greater coverts, bastard-wing, primary-coverts, and quills dusky 

 brown, edged with ochreous brown, a little paler on the margins of 

 the primaries ; tail-feathers dusky brown, edged with ochreous 

 brown ; head and neck like the back, the sides of the face a trifle 

 more reddish, especially on the ear-coverts ; lores and feathers round 

 the eye deep ochreous buff; entire under surface of body deep 

 ochreous buff, rather paler on the under wing-coverts and axillaries. 

 Total length 6*2 inches, culmen 06, wing 2 - 95, tail 2 , 55, tarsus 085. 



The females from Bahia and Pernambuco, collected by Mr. W. A. 

 Forbes, are undoubtedly paler and have the rump conspicuously 

 tawny. The size of the males is rather smaller, but I cannot see 

 any other differences in plumage. 



Specimens from Guiana, Amazonia, and Venezuela and Ecuador 

 seem to be rather smaller than Brazilian birds, and the female is 

 dark brown. So far as the Museum specimens are concerned, the 

 females from Pernambuco are peculiar, those from other localities 

 being alike in their uniform dark chocolate-brown plumage.
