The Euphonia serrirosfris figured by d'Orbigny seems to be no- 

 thing more than the female of a species very closely allied to the 

 Euphonia chlorotica. As bowever I thmk it possibly distinct from 

 the E. chlorotica of Cayenue, MM. Lafresnaye and d'Orbigny'sname 

 can be retained for the BoUvian bird, until further examination of a 

 series of specimens can be made — by vvhich means only the ąuestion 

 of their ideutity can be determmed.

I have seen a good many examples of this Trinidad species, which 

 appears correctly separable from the Cayenne bird.

 America {Less.). 

 Mus. P. L. S. 



In the amount of yellow on the head, and geneval appearance, 

 this species comes very near the true chlorotica. But it may be 

 Fecognized by the paler tinge of the yellow and the absence of the 

 violaceous colouring upon the back.
