Nothocercus Julius salvadorii.

Nothocercus julius Salvad. & Festa, Boll. Mus. Torino, 

 XV. 1899, No. 357, p. 51 : Puno, Ecuador. 



An adult male from the west side of Pichincha, western 

 Ecuador, 11,000 feet, Feb. 1915. " Iris brownish red; feet 

 dull burnt-sienna; bill dark brown, lower mandible paler" 

 {JV. Goodfelloiv) . 



This specimen, which was collected by W. Goodfellow and 

 presented to the British Museum by Mr. E. J. Brook, is 

 much more olive than N.j. salvadorii on the upper parts, 

 but still retains the wide dark bars as in the type. It differs, 

 however, in having the mantle finely freckled as in N. julius, 

 in consequence of which I am compelled to reduce its status 

 to that of a subspecies. On the under surface it differs 

 from N. julius in the more extensive white throat, darker 

 freckled olive throat-band, and the paler rufous on the 

 breast.
