Mexico^ Central America^ cmd South America. 11 



I have named this species in compliment to my friend, J. II, 

 Mcllvain, Esq., of Phihidelphia, an ethnologist as well as 

 ornithologist, to whose liberality Mr. Wood is indebted for the 

 opportunity to make the collection, from which I obtained this 

 and the preceding species. 



Unfortunately, Mr. Wood lost a considerable portion of his 

 collection by shipwreck.

Remarks. This species in its peculiar coloring is somewhat 

 like E. iairdii, Sch, but may readily be known by its more 

 slender form, longer wings and tail, its general duller color, 

 decided brownish breast, and slender bill, this last in £J. hairdii 

 being quite broad. 



The bill exceeds in length that of E. harmnondi, while it is 

 quite as narrow at the base.
