The yellow superciliary line is broadest anteriorly, but does not 

 cross the base of the culmen ; its posterior feathers are whitish. 

 The post-ocular plumbeous stripe passes into the plumbeous nape. 

 The lower dark stripe is bordered behind by the downward extension 

 of the white infra-ocular baud ; anteriorly it does not quite reach 

 the lower mandible, on account of the upward extension of the yel- 

 low of chin. 



The specimen of this species in the museum of the Philadelphia 

 Academy is labelled as from Cayenne. Bonaparte quotes his as 

 from the Rio Negro.
