Mr. Rosenberg's first expedition was to Colombia in 1894, where he 

 remained about a year, exploring the western side of the Cauca Valley. 

 As he paid more attention to entomology, his first collection was some- 

 what small. It was acquired by Mr. Boucard, who described two new 

 species of Humming-birds, Polyerata rosenbergi and Glaticis columbiana. 

 A new species of Nightjar was described as Oaprimulgus rosenbergi by 

 Dr. Hartert (Bull. B.O.C., v., p. 10, 1895). 



In 1896 Mr. Rosenberg proceeded to N.W. Ecuador, and made a 

 somewhat extensive collection of birds, the whole of which (with the 

 exception of a few of the TrochilidsB) is in Mr. Rothschild's museum at 

 Tring. The following species were new to science : — Nemosia rosenbergi, 

 Rothsch. (Bull. B.O.C., vii., p. 6, 1897) ; Buthraupis rothschildi, 

 Berlepsch (Bull. B.O.C., vii., p. 3, 1897) ; Odontophorus parambm, 

 Rothsch. (Bull. B.O.C., vii., p. 6, 1897) ; Crypturus berlepschi, Rothsch.
