lad. &, Brazil, Salto do Hud, Rio Maturac4é, November 19, 1930. 
lad. &, Brazil, Serra Imeri, near Salto do Hu4, November 27, 1930. 
The first of these two specimens has the under wing coverts and 
the axillars definitely tinged with ochraceous. In the second the 
under wing coverts are practically white. There seems thus some 
approach in these two which are from a rather outlying region, to the 
form that Zimmer has described from Sao Jose, near Faro, on the 
Rio Jamund4, under the name S. g. axillaris (Amer. Mus. Nov., No. 
757, 1934, p. 9).

Two of the birds (March and April) were noted as being in breeding 
condition. 
The present series bears out Zimmer’s contention (Amer. Mus.
