55. AMAZILIA. 



215 



Adult male. Similar to that of A. yucatanensis, but with the abdo- 

 men and under tail-coverts paler, the flanks and upper portion of 

 the abdomen are washed with shining green, so that the glittering 

 green of the breast and the chestnut of the abdomen do not meet in 

 a sharply defined line. 



Female. Similar to the male. 



Hab. Eastern Mexico, from the mouth of the Rio Grande to the 

 southern extremity of the State of Yera Cruz.
