 Mus. P. L. S. et S.-G. 



My diagnosis of this apparently new species is from an 

 example obtained in Venezuela by Mr. Spence. Salvin and 

 Godman's single specimen is likewise Venezuelan^ having been 

 procured in the wood-region of the coast near Puerto Cabello 

 by Mr. Goering in 1873. The uniform dark olive-colour of 

 the back renders it easily distinguishable from its allies ; but 

 it is otherwise nearly related to G. regulus.
