The Mexican Icteria seems distinct from the black-billed I. viridis 

 of the United States ; but I confess I am wholly unable to decide

 CaUfomian I. longicauda ?

This Manakin is a beautiful Mexican representative of P. rubri-

 under wing-coverts.

 of which I possess examples from Guatimala. Judging from Audu-
