confounded by mistake, so that those of leucolaima are mentioned after the 

 description of subsulphurea and vice versa. We have thus six catalogued specimens 

 of M Itiiicolaima, and only four of M. subsulphurea. Moreover all the pale- 

 and yellow-throated specimens and the young one, mentioned on p. 45 of that 

 Catalogue, belong to iJf. Ze«co/a«Ma, instead of to «Mii«iJ/7^MW«. My determination 

 of the specimens , mentioned in my above cited papers , was based upon com- 

 parison with the wrongly labelled specimens in our Museum, and only the field 

 determination of the specimen, collected during my last journey, which I af- 

 terwards found to be identical with the former specimens, has led to the dis- 

 covery of Mr. GofEn's mistake.
