[Sapaga^'a River. Iris brown. Legs yellowish olive. A Cjuiet bird, in- 

 habiting the river districts. Not shy, so that the collector does not need 

 to resort to the snare in order to obtain specimens, as opportunies for 

 shooting are rather common. Most of the specimens procured, however, 

 were taken from snares set for other species. — C. F. A.] 



S3. [Rolulus roulroul. 



Iris brown; eyelids and legs carmine. This beautiful species seems to 

 prefer the level districts near the rivers, where its pleasing, powerful 

 liquid whistle may be heard from morning until night Being less shy 

 than the Pheasants, it is not unfrequently seen in small flocks running 

 through the underbrush. When frightened, the males elevate the crest 

 and carry their bodies nearly erect, as they make their short runs, sud- 

 denly coming to a standstill with a jerk, after the fashion of our CJjiails. —
