I have had a specimen of this bird in my possession for some 

 time, but only lately discovered its distinctness from the preceding 

 species, on comparing them together at the Jardin des Plantes. The 

 Venezuelan form may be distinguished by the brown colour on the 

 flanks and crissum, the browuish olive tail, and the commencement 

 of the supercilia frora the front. The examples of this Buarremon 

 at Paris were sent to the Museum from Caraccas by M. Levraud.
