were distinct, as, while out there, there was no opportunity of 

 comparing them. I cannot speak positively about its range; 

 but to the best of my belief it is common at Ocana, and almost 

 everywhere in the mountain-regions ; at all events, we shot a 

 bird on several occasions which we took for this species, but did 

 not preserve, as being in bad plumage, and we thought we had 

 already got one specimen. A pair were nesting under the tiles 

 of our neighbour's house at Ocana at the end of January. Their 

 habits much resemble those of our Wren. 



13. Anthus bogotensis. 



The only Pipit that came under our observation. It inhabits 

 the region of paramos. 



14. HeNICOCICHLA NOVEBOKACENSIS. 



Ocana and Bucaramanga. Not common. 



• 15. Mniotilta varia. 

 Herradura. 



, 16. Parula pitiayumi. 



Frequents the bushes by the side of the stream in the Cocuta 

 valley. 



17. GeOTHLYPIS PHILADELPHIA. 



Obtained once near the stream at Ocana. 



• 18. HelminthoPhaga peregrina. 

 Herradura. 



' 19. Dendrceca blackburni^. 



We first met with this bird at Alto. Its upward range 

 seems to be terminated only by the paramos. Among the oaks 

 on the Pamplona road, just under the paramo, it was very com- 

 mon. The bright orange throat of the male makes it a con- 

 spicuous bird. I fancy it does not occur at a lower elevation 

 than 5000 feet in these latitudes. 



• 20. Dendr(eca castanea. 

 Naranjo. 



. 21. Dendceca testiva. 

 Common in the neiprlibouvhood of the stream at Ocaiia. The
