Seven ex. S and ? . The S s brighter below. " Irides dark 

 hazel; contents of stomach, insects." 



This is the only Vireo with a first spurious primary (in this bird 

 measuring 0*7 inch from its insertion) which I have yet seen from 

 Southern America. In form it is somewhat similar to V. novebora- 

 censis. I have named it at Mr. Eraser's request after Sefiora Josefa 

 Borja y Davilos, who, with other members of the same family, ren- 

 dered every facility to Mr. Fraser in forming his collections on their 

 estates at Pallataiiga. The only other species of this group of 

 which I have seen S. American examples are Fireosylvia olivacea 

 of the U.S., which extends into New Granada, and V. agilis 

 (Lanius agilis, Licht.) from Brazil, and extending northwards to 

 New Granada. I do not know Vireosylvia frenata of DuSus (Bull. 

 Ac. Brux. xxii. p. 150), said to be from Ocaiia in New Granada ; 

 but the description given agrees with Vireo altiloquus of the An- 

 tilles.

Fuscescenti-cinerea olivaceo tincta ; capita toto nndique et cor- 

 pore subtus saturate cinnainomeo-rujis ; gula flavicantiore ; 

 veiitre inedio albo : rostro superiore nigro, inferiore cum pedi- 

 bus pluvibeis. 

 Long, tota 4-7, alee 2-4, caudse 2-0. 



Three ex. " Bill black above, blue below ; feet and legs blue : sto- 

 mach contained insects." This pretty new species of Nemosia is a 

 close ally of N. sordida and N. ruficeps of my Synopsis, but is con- 

 spicuously different in colouring. 

 Anabates subalaris. 



Fusco-brunneus : uropygio et cauda tota saturate ferrugineis : 

 striis capitis et colli sujierioris, pilumarum scapas occupantibus, 

 cum gula tota et striis jicctoris latioribus pallide cervinis : tec- 

 tricibus subalaribus dare cinnamomeis : rostro superiore nigro, 

 inferiore plumbeo : pedibus virescentibus. 

 Long, tota 6-75, alse 3\5, caudse 3'0. 

 Five ex. " Irides dark hazel."

 lorum ambitu et superciliis ante oculos angustis cum gula tota 

 stramineis, striga svpcrciliari post ocidum, pectore toto et tec- 

 tricibus subalaribus dare cimiamomeis : ventre crissocpie fusees- 

 centibus : 7-osti-o fuscescenti-viridi, apice pallidiore : pedibus 

 fuscis.
