98 Penelope jaequaea (Crested Guan). This species is the Pavo de 



Alonte, or Wood Turkey of the Spaniards. It is found in Uppe 

 Amazonia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. 



8 I. 99 Penelope pileata (Red-breasted Guan). Inhabits N.E. Brazil. 



9 I. 107, 115 Ortalida ruficauda (Red-tailed Guan). O. erythroptera (Red-winged 



Guan). Beebe found the Red-tailed Guan associating with domestic 

 fowls in Venezuela, and mentions the belief (held also elsewhere) that 

 they inter-breed, producing fine game cocks, but no such hybrids 

 could be produced. The Red-winged Guan is found both in 

 Venezuela and Ecuador. 



10 11. 119 Cumana jacuting-a (Spix's White-headed Guan). a native of S.E. 



Brazil and Paraguay.

12 1. 122 Chamsepetes goudotii (Goudot's Guan). Inhabits Colombia, 



Ecuador and Peru. 



13 I. 132 Odontophorus capueira (Capoeira Partridge). This species inhabits 



S.E. Brazil. All the other members of the genus are confined to 

 Western Tropical America. Gould, who has admirably figured and 

 described the birds of this group in his Monograph of the Odon- 

 tophorinse, calls them the "Partridges of America." Newton 

 considered them closely allied to the Old World Quails. About 14 

 species occur in S. America, together with 6 species of the allied 

 genus Eupsychortyx or " Crested Quails." 



14 1. 144 Coluraba COrensis (Barefaced Pigeon). The Pigeons and Doves "of 



South America are very numerous, and comprise nearly 70 species. 

 The habits of many are akin to those of their Old World congenora, 

 but in several genera such as Geotrygo?i, the Ground-Doves, they are 

 of course much modified. The Bare-faced Pigeon is a native of 

 Venezuela. 



15 I. 145, 176 Columba picazuro (Picazuro Pigeon); Columbina grisea (Grey 



Ground-Dove). The Picazuro Pigeon inhabits Brazil, P.iraguay, 

 Uruguay and is the common wood-pigeon of Argentina. In appear- 

 ance and habits it resembles its European name?ake, the Ring Dove 

 or Wood Pigeon. The Grey Ground-Dove inhabits Brazil, Guiana, 

 Venezuela and Columbia. 



16 1. 148, 151 Columba maculosa (Spot- Winged Pigeon) ; C. sylvestris (Paraguayan 



Rufous Pigeon). The Spot-Winged Pigeon has a wide range extending 

 from Peru to Argentina. It resembles the Picazuro Pigeon but ma> 

 be at once distinguished, says Mr. Hudson, by its spotted back and 

 wings. The Paraguayan Rufous Pigeon is found in S. Brazil as well 

 as Paraguay. 



17 III. 154, 206 Columba albilinea (White-naped Pigeon); Geotrygon bourcieri 



(Bourcier's Ground-Dove). As indicated above two species of Pigeons 

 of widely dissimilar appearance and habits are depicted on this plate. 

 The first-named ranges from Columbia and Guiana to Peru and 

 Bolivia, while the second inhabits W. Columbia and W. Ecuador. 



18 IV. 155 Columba araucana (Chilian Pigeon), Inhabits Chile, and is known 



as "Torcaza."
