Adult male. Differs from S. analis in having less black on the 

 chin and less white on the abdomen, which is more ashy ; it is 

 further distinguished by the absence of the large white speculum at 

 the base of the primaries ; these are margined with white, but the 

 latter does not extend across the base of the feathers, as it does in 

 S. analis. Total length 4-5 inches, culmen 0-3, wing 2-6, tail 1-95, 

 tarsus 0-65. 



Adult female^ Very similar to the female of S. analis, but dif- 

 fering in the wing, the base of the primaries being merely edged 

 with white, which does not occupy the base of both webs. Total 

 length 4-5 inches, culmen 0-35, wing 2-6, tail 2-1, tarsus 0'65. 



Hab. From Colombia to Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia.
