LIST OF BIRDS COLLECTED BY W. W. BROWN, JR., 
AT LOMA DEL LEON, PANAMA. 
BY OUTRAM BANGS. 
For twenty-eight days in March, 1g00, Mr. W. W. Brown, Jr., 
collected birds and mammals, for my brother and me, at Loma 
del Leon (Lion Hill Station), Panama,— preparing in this time 
752 skins. 
Loma del Leon lies in the rain-soaked, swampy country of the 
eastern side of the Isthmus (the western coast being much drier, 
with a scrubby growth). It is a station from which many birds 
have been sent to the larger collections of both England and 
America, and a number of specimens obtained there by Mr. 
Brown are practically topotypes—in some cases actual topo- 
types —of species of Lawrence, Salvin and Godman, and others. 
The collection of birds is a very fine one; but the birds of the 
region are so well known that the present paper takes much the 
form of a list, in most cases merely the name and the number of 
specimens taken by Mr. Brown being given, comment being 
unnecessary; and but three forms receive new names. 
I am under the greatest obligation to Drs. Ridgway and Rich- 
mond for allowing me the unrestricted use of the collection of 
birds in the National Museum and for helping me identify 
specimens.
