444 Mr. C. F. Uiulerwoocl on the Birds 



I looked specially for this species in Miravalles as much 

 as I looked for T. aurantiiventi'is at Bagaces, but these two 

 species seem to adhere strictly to their respective elevations. 



-1- Trogon aurantiiventris, Gould ■^. 



Only taken in Miravalles, and the specimens procured 

 were the result of diligent search, as they are not by any 

 means common. I found them to be the wildest of the 

 Trogons inhabiting these parts, hardly allowing one to get 

 within gun-shot. 



./ Trogon atricollis, Vieill. 

 Commonest in lower regions. 



vf_TR0G0N MELANOCEPHALUS, Gould. 



In Miravalles rarely seen, but as one approaches Bagaces 

 it gradually becomes more plentiful ; however, I have taken 

 specimens at the highest point of collecting. 



.t- Trogon caligatus, Gould. 



Like T. atricollis, commoner in lower regions. 



-f Trogon massena, Gould. 



Four specimens taken in Miravalles; no others observed. 



BuCCONIDiE. 



./ Malacoptila panamensis, Lafr. 



Very few specimens observed in Miravalles ; two speci- 

 mens procured. 



CUCULID^. 



i Crotophaga sulcirostris, Sw. 

 At almost all parts of the country, at almost all elevations, 

 so soon as there are signs of cultivation and clearings made 

 for the cattle, the familiar cry of these birds is heard. 



I MoRococcYX erythropygia (Less.). 



Seems to show no preference for one point to another 

 between Bebedero and Miravalles. 



* [The birds sent by Mr. Underwood are of a deep oraage-red, and are 

 intermediate between T. imella and T. aurantiiventris. — O. S.]
