Recently published Ornithological J forks. 641 



Ceiba, on the coast of Honduras. It contains examples of 

 about 130 species^ most of which are provided with three 

 names each in the list. 



Chloronerpes simplex allophyeus *, Picumnus dimotus, and 

 Dendrornis nana confinis are described as new. A (quite 

 unnecessary) new generic name " Chrysocantor " (vox 

 hybricla !) is used for the " Golden Wood- Warblers " (Den- 

 drceca) : it seems to have been proposed by Mr. C. J. Maynard 

 in 1901 f. 



Fifty-one specimens of Cotinga amabilis were shot in one 

 tree ! Five adult male examples of Carpodectes nitidus were 

 obtained near Ceiba, the range of this beautiful bird being 

 thereby extended into Honduras.

This memoir, issued in 1896, has hitherto escaped our 

 notice, and appears to have also remained unknown to other 

 workers in ornithology. But the author has now kindly 

 favoured us with a separate copy, and we have great pleasure 

 in giving a short account of it.
