I bave not been able to apply tbis name of Licbtenstein^s 

 to any of Mr. Wbitely^s Formicariidae. It was originally 

 proposed for a species from Cayenne said to be allied to 

 P. leucoptera.

I bave only seen specimens of tbis form from Guiana, and 

 of tbe true F. cayennensis from Brazil. Can Buffon bave 

 made an error in ascribing bis bird to Cayenne ? Tbe 

 evidence before me implies tbat tbis was tbe case.
