of the Volcano of Miravalles. 439 



-/-MiLVULUS TYRANNUS (Linil.). 



Few seen. 



-f MlLVULUS FORFICATUS (Gm.). 



This species I found in November and December very 

 abundant in Bagaces and its vicinitj-", where numbers could 

 be seen in the air or perched on the telegraph-wires, but in 

 Miravalles it was rather uncommon. 



PiPRIDiE. 

 -f PiPRA MENTALIS, Scl. 



One female taken; no others observed. 



-j PiPRA LEUCORRHOA, Scl, 



Two or three specimens taken ; few others seen. 



4_Chiroxiphia LINEARIS (Bonap.). 



This is the commonest of the Pipridse, a very conspicuous 

 bird. On account of its note it is called by the natives 

 " Toledo.' ' 



/ HeTEROPELMA VERiE-PACIS, Scl. 



In Miravalles quite rare ; my specimens were shot in the 

 deepest forest. 



CoTINGIDjE. 

 -iTiTYRA SEMIFASCIATA (Spix) . 



Seen occasionally, but cannot be called abundant. Natives 

 call it ''Pajaro-chancho'' (Pig-bird) on account of its note, 

 which somewhat resembles the grunting of that animal, but 

 in a higher key. 



J-AULIA RUFESCENS (Scl.). 



Only one specimen procured ; apparently a very rare bird. 



LiPAUGUS HOLERYTHRUS, Scl. 



Several specimens procured, but not by any means common. 



^. Attila sclateri, Lawr.* 



Occasionally seen in the thick forests, but not abundant. 



* [The specimens sent most resemble A. sclateri, but thwy vary a good 

 deal inter se. — 0. S.]
