one specimen only having been obtained, though it has been 

 noticed as a straggler in some of the southern Antilles. 



2. Thryothortjs felix, Sclater ? 



Escnintla. This Wren is most like T. felix of Oaxaca, de- 

 scribed P. Z. S. 1859, p. «371 ; but a single specimen only being 

 in the collection, makes its determination not quite satisfactory.

 Syst. Verz. IMus. Brem. p. 28 (1844). 



Volcan de Agua, January 3 860. This bird is the one men- 

 tioned at p. 272. It appears distinct from the C. prostheleucus, 

 of which Cipriano Prado obtained many specimens near Choctum, 

 in the tierra caliente, to the north of Coban. The true C. pros- 

 theleucus seems to be found in the hot country only; while this 

 bird is an inhabitant of a much more temperate region, and 

 seems identical with the species of New Granada. 



4. PoLioPTiLA ALBiLORis, Sclat. ct Salv. P.Z. S. 1860, p. 298, 

 I shot a single specimen of this bird near a place called 



Choacus, in a valley leading into that of the Rio Motagua. 



5. Parula brasiliana (Licht.). 



Cipriano Prado's collection contained a single specimen of a 

 Parula apparently of this South American species, which has not 

 hitherto been noticed so far north.

 p. 255. N. A. 



A single specimen from Choctum. 



7. Granatellus sall^i, Sclat, P. Z. S. 1856, p. 92. 

 A single specimen in the collection from Cajabon. 



8. Hylophilus ochraceiceps, Sclatei', P.Z.S. 1859, p. 375. 

 Several specirnens in the collection from Choctum. 



9. Hylophilus ciNEREicEPs,Sclat.etSalv.P.Z,S.1860,p.299. 

 Two specimens from the same locality as the last. 



10. Myiadestes unicolor, Sclater, P. Z. S. 1856, p. 299. 



A common species about Coban, and throughout the greater 

 part of the mountainous parts of V^cra Paz. Though of the same
