This little species, of which there are two examples in the British 

 Museum, both apparently Bogota skins, differs from all its congeners 

 in the colouring of the lower surface of the body, vvhich is of a pale 

 reddish buff, grovving much whiter in the middle of the belly. Above 

 the i)lumage is lead-coloured, with a greenish tinge superinduced 

 towards the lower part of the back. The \vings and tail are brown, 

 with slight greenish edgings ; the ear-coverts and whole side of the 

 face are black. In the second specimen, ajtparently not so mature, 

 there is a hght-coloured spot on the front, just above the nostrils. 

 The bill of this species agrees with that of Chlorospingus atripileus 

 in size, but is rather straighter in form, as in C. verticalis.
