The Smith collection, forming the basis of the present paper, 

 contained nearly 3000 specimens, representing 304 species, and 

 adding 105 to the list of positively known Santa Marta birds, 

 which now numbers 388 species. Thus all but 84 of the 388 spe- 

 cies are represented in the Smith collection, which also includes, 

 as just said, 105 not previously recorded. In the course of the 

 present paper the following species are described as new, namely : 



Odontophorus atrifrons. Attila parvirostris. 



Myiobius assimilis. Attila rufipectus. 



Ochthoeca jesupi. Myiotherula sanctae-martae. 



Ochthceca olivacea. Hylophilus brunneus. 



The Simons and Brown collections were both made in large 

 part in the higher portions of the Sierra Nevada, while much of 

 the Smith collection was gathered near the coast, only a small 

 amount of collecting being done at altitudes above 5000 to 8000 

 feet. This sufficiently accounts for the absence from the Smith 

 collection of a number of species obtained by Simons and Brown in 

 the higher parts of the Sierra. 



As will be seen from the list of species given below, very few 

 water birds have been obtained from the Santa Marta district, 

 neither Simons nor Brown collecting along the coast, and appar-
