Hab. Brazil, Mattodentro, Ypanema (Natt.). 



This very well-known species is found in almost every col-

 from none of the more northern provinces.

 D. G.E.

Trochilus leucophrys, Nordm. Erm. Reise, p. 2 (1835). 



Hab. South-east Brazil. 



This species has been figured by Mr. Gould as the P. inter- 

 medins of Lesson ; but in his ' Introduction ' he has changed the 

 name correctly to that of squalidus of Temminck. With the 

 former species, whatever it may be, the present has nothing 

 to do ; under the latter name it is sufficiently well figured 

 by Temminck, who described it in the ' Planches Coloriees/ 

 It is an abundant and easily recognizable species, and is sent 

 in quantities in collections from Rio Janeiro. Natterer pro- 

 cured many specimens in the southern and interior portions 

 of Brazil. 



Our specimens are the following : — 



Rio Janeiro : two, Mus. S. & G. ; two, Mus. D. G. E ; one, 

 Mus. P.L.S. 



Santa Fe, Minas Geraes : one (Rogers), Mus. S. & G. 



7. Phaethornis anthophilus.
