1. THRYOTHORUS MYSTACALIS, sp. nov. 
Supra rufus, pileo fusco, alis caudaque nigricanti-fuscis, brunneo 
eatus limbatis, rectricum pogoniis externis nigro obsolete trans- 
vittatis: macula lororum et ciliis ocularibus albis: regione 
auriculari albo nigroque striolata: gutture albo, mystacibus 
latis nigris : subtus pallide cinerascenti-albus, ventre crissoque 
cinnamomeo lavatis: rostro plumbeo ; pedibus fuseis. 
Long. tota 6°5, alee 2°6, caudze 2°4, tarsi 1-0. 
Hab. In rep. Equat. 
Mus. P.L.S. 
Two examples (¢), Pallatanga Nov. 1859. “TIrides hazel: bill 
black above, yellowish beneath; legs and feet dark flesh-colour : 
stomach contained insects.” 
This Wren is a close ally of TJ’. coraya of Guiana and T. genibarbis 
of Brazil, belonging strictly to the same group of species, but dis- 
tinguishable by its larger size, darker colouring, and well-defined 
moustache.

2. CaATHARUS MACULATUS, Sclater, P. Z.S. 1858, p. 64. 
Two ex., Pallatanga and Chillanes. Sexes alike. ‘‘ Irides hazel ; 
bill orange, with black culmen; legs, feet, and rim round the eye 
orange.” 
I am surprised at finding this bird here, although it is not quite a 
solitary instance of the same species occurring on both sides of the 
Andes. The birds formerly described were from the Rio Napo. 
3. CYPHORINUS GRISEICOLLIS (Lafr.).—Merulazis griseicollis, 
Lafr. R. Z. 1840, p. 103. 
Gizzard contained insects. 
4. DENDROICA BLACKBURNIZ (Gm.). 
Two ex., d et 2. 
5. VireosyLyia acitis (Licht.).—V. virescens, Baird, Rep. 
p. 333. 
Agrees with Bogota specimens, which I refer to this species. 
§. My1apEsTES VENEZUELENSIS, Sclater, Ann. & Mag. N. H. 
ser. 2, vol. xvii. p. 468 (1856). 
One pair. “Bill black, with under part of lower mandible yel- 
lowish ; legs and feet yellowish.”” Sexes alike. 
These birds agree with a Bogota skin in my possession. Cabanis 
(Mus. Hein. p. 55) notices the occurrence of M. griseiventris 
(Tschudi) from Bogota. It is possible that this is the same as his 
species ; but I should hardly think so from Tschudi’s description.
