I possess a single example of this small Chlorospingus. It is 

 closely allied to C. superciliaris, but is inferior in size, has short 

 yellow instead of longer whitisli supercilia, and the body beneath only 

 yellow quite in the middle, the sides being oUve. Its olive plumage 

 is also of a more brownish tinge, and the feet are pale brown or flesh- 

 coloured, not plumbeous.

One specimen of this bird, which I observed in the Berlin Mu- 

 seum, was marked as having been received from M. Boissoneau of 

 Paris, along \vith examples of the preceding species, from which it 

 appeared not to have been distinguished. It is closely allied to that
