Three ex. ‘Common: sometimes in flocks.” 
This Spermophila is allied to S. mysia and S. leucopterygia, but 
has brighter and clearer colours. It may be recognized by the white 
subocular spot.

One example. “Irides hazel; bill pinkish flesh-colour ; legs and 
feet brown ; gizzard contained seeds. In the bush in company with 
others.”” 
This bird is a close ally of O. crassirostris of Guiana and Trinidad 
and O. maximiliani of Brazil, but has the under wing-coverts black, 
and the alar spot much smaller, almost obsolete. I have another 
example of the same species, received in a collection from Bogota. 
28. CorYPHOSPINGUS CRUENTUS (Less.).—Tiaris eruenta, Less. 
—Lophospiza cruenta, Bp. Consp. p. 470. 
Examples of both sexes. 2. Fuscus : alis nigricantibus rufescente 
limbatis, subtus pallide fulvus. ‘In the deep bush: on one occa- 
sion in a flock of 200: irides hazel.” 
29, CasstcuLus Prevost! (Less.): Bp. Consp. p. 428. 
Three examples, agreeing with New-Granadian and Guatemalan 
specimeus. “‘Irides pale yellow; bill yellow; legs and feet blue: 
found in the trees in the deep bush ; by no means shy.”
