** Contrasted with typical M. mewicanus the new form is larger and has the crown 
deeper rufous ; the greens of the back are deeper and more olive ; the rufous of 
the crown and neck extends farther over the shoulders, and the black area of the 
ear-coverts is more broadly edged with blue. |The Type measures as follows : 
Wing, 126; tail, 200; culmen, 44; tarsus, 29. <A typical male of meaicanus 
measures: Wing, 116; tail, 170; culmen, 39; tarsus, 25.” (Nelson). Habitat. 
“ Pacific coast district of Mexico from Mazatlan, Sinaloa, to Tonala in Chiapas.” 
One. ¢. Mexico (Terro Tepic, Tuxpan, May). 
Our specimens agree well with the foregoing description. .

Co-types of the species. 
The former of these specimens collected by Bates and the latter by Delattre, are 
referred by Sclater (P.Z.S. 1857, p. 254) to M. meaicanus ; this, however, is 
erroneous, as these specimens are the ones mentioned by Gould, in his description 
of the species (P.Z.S. 1854, p. 154) ; and the only specimens of M. mexicanus in 
the Derby Collection have no specific locality attached.
