Two examples of this very distinct species (the type ob- 

 tained by Mr. Wallace in 1849 and the specimen procured 

 by Mr. Layard in 1873) are in my collection. I have never 

 seen any others.

This species was established on " Bogota " skins by La- 

 fresnaye in 1845. In my collection and that of Messrs. 

 Salvin and Godman are specimens of the same origin agree- 

 ing very fairly with Lafresnaye^s description. A specimen 

 (Mus. S.-G.) collected by Goering at Valencia,, on the 

 coastland of Venezuela, in May 1879, can with difficulty be 

 separated from H. viridiflavus.
