confined to South America, are the Manakins, of which the 
Yellow-throated Manakin (Pipra aureola) may stand as an 
example. This little bird from Guiana is red with a black back, 
tail, and wings, and a yellow throat. There are about fifty- 
nine species of the group to which it belongs. They are all 
small shy birds which are dwellers in woods.

The Cock-of-the-Rock (Rupicola crocea). 
A curious and very handsome Bird of an orange-red colour is 
called the Cock-of-the-Rock (Rupicola crocea), the antics of which 
have been so well described by Mr. Darwin. It comes from 
Cayenne. 
The Umbrella-bird (Cephalopterus ornatus, fig. 95), so-called 
from its peculiar crest, and the Bell-bird (Chasmorhynchus nudi- 
collis, fig. 96), which derives its name from its wonderful note, 
are likewise South-American Birds, as is also the Blue Chatterer
