Characters. — Similar to true C. gracilirostris of Costa Rica, but wing much 

 shorter; bill very much stouter and longer ; upper parts less rufescent, more 

 olivaceous. The color of the back and wings in the new form is raw umber 

 (usually a little darker and more olivaceous than is this color in Ridgway's 

 " Nomenclature of colors," but sometimes almost exactly matching it). 



Accentor — one who sings with another.
