where else it could be placed at all satisfactorily. The billis straight 
and sharp, and the ends of the mandibles pointed through rather 
rounded laterally at the termination. In spite of this, and its rather 
shorter and stronger tarsi, I believe it is more nearly allied to Di- 
glossa and Diglossopis than to any other genus of C@rebide. 
Mr. Fraser has sent one skin of this species and one bird in spirits, 
both obtained at Panza, on the side of Chimborazo. His notes are 
as follows :—‘‘ Gorion del Paramo, male by dissection. Irides hazel ; 
bill, legs, and feet black ; in gizzard insects and caterpillars. These 
birds hop about on the ground and scratch in the sand like the Go- 
rions (Zonotrichia pileata) ; in the trees they are very sprightly, and 
resemble the Trepadores (Glyphorhynchus and its allies). Their 
note is ‘chip-chip,’ about four times in succession. In fact they 
may be considered the Tits (Parus) of this country.”
