This bird iscommon in the woods of Guiana, and differs from the 
former in having the ¢rachea of a much greater length, defcending 
on the breaft more than half way before it makes a turn upwards ; 
after which it paffes over the right clavicle, into the cavity of the 
breaft. It may be obferved, that in both thefe birds the defcent is 
on the left fide, and the afcent onthe right. The Parraka, how- 
ever, differs from the Marai/; for the male only has the elongation 
of the trachea; in the female it pafles immediately to the breaft with- 
out the leaft fingularity. This bird is faid to fet up a very loud cry 
at fun-fet, which is thought to be the loudeft of all birds in the new 
world, and to greatly refemble the word Parraka repeated many 
times together, from which it has obtained the name.
