This bird is of exactly the šame cast of plumage as C.flavipectus 

 and canigularis, but may be distinguished by the colouring of its 

 head, which has a broad longitudinal paler band, and is darker, 

 almost black, over the eyes and again beneath them, and by the 

 white postocular spot. A specimen in my possession seems to be of 

 Delattre's preparation, and agrees with that in the Paris Museum, 

 upon which Prince Bonaparte estabhshed his Poospiza olivacea.

Hab. Trinidad {Mus. Jard.) ; Bolivia ? {Mus. H. E. S.). 



I have seen two specimens of this apparently unrecognized Chlo- 

 rospingus, which agrees in form with the preceding species, but is 

 distinguished by its whony yellow abdomen. One of these speci- 

 mens is in Sir WilHam Jardine's possession, the other in the collec- 

 tion of the late Mr. H. E. Strickland.

I have never seen any specimen of this bird except the type ia the 

 Paris Museum. The "bill resembles that of C.flavipectus, but is 

 rather stronger.
