nearly always to be seen on the sandy hills surrounding the town, but the 

 bird was not noted at all a few miles inland. 



Furnarius cinnamomeus (Less.). Seven adults, both sexes, Huanca- 

 bamba and Sullana, July and August. 



The Oven-bird was often seen about the towns of Huancabamba and 

 Sullana but in the sparsely inhabited interior it was not met with at all. 



Synallaxis maranonica Tacz. Four adults, both sexes, Bellavista, 

 September. 



Synallaxis stictothorax Scl. Four adults, both sexes, Bellavista and 

 Perico, September. 



Siptornis cisandina (Tacz.)? Three specimens, two immature 

 females and one adult male, Huancabamba, August. 



We have compared our birds with a series of skins in the American 

 Museum of S. antisiensis Scl. from which they differ in having the super- 

 ciliary stripe grayish white (quits fulvous in S. antisiensis) and the ear 

 coverts much grayer less fulvous or rusty. We have seen no specimens of 

 *S. cisandina and refer our birds to that form with some doubt. If they 

 do represent it, it certainly is only subspecifically to be separated from 

 antisiensis. 



Phacellodomus rufifrons (Wied.). Sixteen specimens, both sexes, 

 apparently all adult, Bellavista and Perico, September. 



DendrocolaptidaB . 



Picolaptes warscewiczi (Cab. & Heine). Two adults, c? and 9, 

 Tabaconas, August 29 and September 1. 



Cotingidaa. 



Heliochera ruf axilla (Tschudi). One adult d% Tabaconas, Sep- 

 tember 3. 



The single specimen collected was the only one observed. It was found 

 singing on the top of a tall tree in the subtropical forests of the Tabaconas 

 River Valley. 



Cephalopterus ornatus Geoff. Two adults, male and female, from 

 the woods northeast of Perico, September 16.
