15. CurysoMItTris 1cTERICA (Licht.) ? 
The same bird as described in P. Z. 8. 1858, p. 552, but perhaps 
not the true icterica. “ Ilguero: very common.” 
? 
16. Spiza 
One ex. d. “Bill nearly black; legs and feet dark blue; food 
vegetable matter.’ Apparently a new species of this limited genus 
of uniform bluish-grey colouring ; but the bill is rather crushed, and 
I am unwilling to describe it from the present specimen. 
17. SYNALLAXIS ERYTHROPS, Sp. Nov. 
Murino-brunnea, supra rufescentior, subtus cinerascentior, gula 
albicante: pileo supero et capitis lateribus totis, alis extus et 
cauda lete rufis: subalaribus cinnamomeis : rostro superiore 
nigro, inferiore carneo, pedibus sordide viridibus. 
Long. tota 5:0, alee 2°4, caudee 2°3. 
Hab. In rep. Equatoriana. 
Mus. P.L.S. 
Five examples, sexes alike. Food “insects.” This species may 
be easily distinguished from its allies by the extension of the red 
‘head below the eyes, so as to cover the sides of the face. The rec- 
trices are twelve in number. 
18. MARGARORNIS SQUAMIGERA (Lafr.). 
Chillanes, one ex. 
19. DenpDRocors aTRiRosTRIS (Lafr. et D’Orb.) ; D’Orb. Voy. 
pl. 54. fig. 1; Lafr. Rev. Zool. 1851, p. 466. 
Several ex. ‘‘ Irides grey ; bill blackish.” 
20. GRALLARIA RUFICAPILLA, Lafr. 
One ex. ‘‘ Shumpo: food insects.” 
21. GRALLARIA REGULUS, Sp. nov. 
Brunnescenti-olivacea, pileo cinerascentiore ; dorsi plumis niyro 
circumeinctis ; alis nigricantibus extus brunneo limbatis ; cauda 
brevissima unicolore brunnea : subtus saturate ferruginea, gut- 
ture et pectore nigricantiore perfusis ; torque gutturali pallide 
cinnamomeo, hujus plumarum apicibus nigris : rostro corneo, 
supra obscuriore: pedibus corylinis : tectricibus subalaribus 
ventre concoloribus. 
Long. tota 6:3, alee 4:0, caudze 1°2, tarsi 1°6. 
Hab. Yn rep, Equatoriana. 
Mus. P.L.8. 
A single specimen of this Grallaria is in the collection, without 
notes. It is strictly of the same group as G. varia sive rex, G. im- 
perator and G. guatemalensis, being most closely allied to the 
latter bird, from which it may be distinguished by its dark throat 
and breast, clearly defined guttural band, and much inferior size.
