Fam. troglodytid^e. 



Subfam. TROGLODYTIN^E. 



373. Cyphoa'isms Lawrencii, sp. nov. 



« " Sd. M.S. 



" cantans, Lawr. nee Gm. No. 



50 of Part I. 



In the Annals of the Lyceum, Yol. VII., p. 293, I gave a 

 description of this species and referred it to C. cantans, Gm. 

 I was led into this error by specimens so labelled in the Museum 

 of the Phil. Acad. On discovering that it was not that species, 

 I sent specimens to Mr. Sclater, who decided that it was unde- 

 scribed, and complimented me by conferring my name upon it. 



The measurements given in the description above referred to 

 are those of the female ; the male measures, length 5| in. ; 

 wing 2f ; tail If; bill J; tarsi 1. 



I have one female specimen which has the chin and centre 

 of the throat pure white, the chesnut color extending around it 

 in a broad margin ; this is probably an accidental variation. 



374. Thryothonis rufalbus, Lafr. 



" longirostris Lawr. nee Vieill. No. 



190 of Part II. 



This species, in the Museum of the Phil. Acad., is labelled 

 T. striolatus, which is a synonym of T. longirostris ; finding 

 on a new examination that this was not correctly named, I 

 referred it to Mr. Sclater, who determined it to be T. rifalbus. 



375. Thryothorus modestus, Cab. Jour. f. Orn. 1860, 



p. 409. 

 " leucotis, Lawr. nee Lafr. No. 191 of 



Part II. 



Mr. Sclater decides that this is the closely allied species of 

 Mr. Cabanis referred to above.
