Cyclorhis flavipectus. 
Cyclorhis flavipectus, Scuater, P. Z. 8. 1858, 448 (Trinidad and Santa 
Martha).—Is. Catal. 1861, 45, no. 275.—Tayzor, Ibis, 1864, 81 
(Trinidad). 
Hab. Trinidad and northern coast of South America. 
(No. 32,719, 4.) Head above, and nape, light plumbeous, washed very 
faintly with orange or ochrey brown; cheeks paler, and pure ashy, running 
into the still lighter, almost white chin; rest of uppér parts bright olive 
green. Throat and breast (extending down a little more along the sides) 
bright greenish-yellow; the inner face of wings and inner edges of quills 
purer yellow. Rest of under parts white. Under surface of tail decided 
olive green. A broad superciliary band of orange or ochrey brown from 
nostrils (the two meeting on the forehead) reaching to the nape, rather farther 
beyond the eye than the distance to it. Bill horn color, the tip and edges 
whitish ; the lower mandible plumbeous black. Legs flesh color. 
Fourth and 5th quills equal and longest ; 2d shorter than the 10th and the 
secondaries. 
(No. 32,719, %.) Total length, 6.00; wing, 2.80; tail, 2.60; exposed por- 
tion of 1st primary, 1.05, of 2d, 1.75, of longest (measured from exposed base 
of Ist primary), 2.16; length of bill from forehead, .75, from nostril, ».46,— 
along gape, .83, depth, .36 ; tarsus, .88 ; middle toe and claw, .72, claw alone, 
-00; hind toe and claw, .61, claw alone, .34. 
The extreme nape is of a purer plumbeous than elsewhere on top 
of the head. No. 32,719 has a faint buff wash on the sides of body 
not seen in the others, and probably indicative of the autumnal 
plumage. 
This species is readily distinguished from C. guianensis, which it 
otherwise resembles, by the yellow, not dusky legs: the greater 
amount of yellow beneath, which extends over the jugulum to fore 
part of breast: and the ochrey wash of top of head, although this 
latter character may depend somewhat on season. The ash of 
cheeks and chin is lighter, the yellow of under parts purer. The 
size is larger, the bill deeper; the legs stouter, besides being differ- 
ently colored» There is less of the gray tinge of the under parts 
of guianensis.
