2. Leucippus pallidus. 



Leucippus paUidus, Tacz, P. Z. S. 1874, p. 542 ; id. Orn. Per. i. 

 p. 402 ; Muls. Ann. Soc. Linn, Lyon, xxii. p. 205. 



" L. capite supra fusco griseo plumis viridi terminatis et subgriseo 

 marginatis ; corpore supra pallide viridi, nitoro aureo minimo ; 

 subtus sericeo albus, lateribus colli viridi maeulatis ; lateribus pec- 

 toris et hypochondriis maculis magnis pallide viridibus ; cauda 

 truncata, rectricibus mediis glauco viridibus, reliquis pogonio in- 

 terne latissime albo." (TaczanoivsJd, I. s. c.) 



Hah. Peru, Huanta. 



Mr. Elliot (Ibis, 1876, p. 9) considered L. pallidus to be simply 

 a synonym of L. cJiionogaster ; but Taczanowski (Orn. Per.) has 

 reasserted his opinion to the contrary. Without authentic specimens 

 before me, I am unable to satisfy myself either way.
