* Phaethornis fuliginosus Simon : Somewhat resembles Phaethornis anthrophilus 

 (Bourc), but differs in having the entire throat and chin blackish with the feathers 

 very delicately bordered by obscure gray, the breast becoming gradually paler and 

 the abdomen whiter, tinged with faun (without grayish); the head lacks the clear 

 bands above and below the eye, but with a mark of black on each side of the eye, 

 which is more intense than the black of the throat; two outer rectrices on each side 

 entirely black (not bordered with white). Wing, 58; middle rectrices, 50; bill, 34.5 

 mm. 



*> Phaethornis fumosus (ScHLtiXER) : Upper parts dark bronze green, clouded with 

 grayish borders to the feathers; upper tail coverts copper bronze green; top of head 

 gray, slightly metallic; under parts uniform "rufbraun-grau," slightly metallic; 

 under tail coverts more strongly metallic; a brownish black streak under and behind 

 the eye; middle pair (longest) tail feathers dark bronze green with extensive clear 

 gray tips; the next pair bronze green at bases, then blackish gray with grayish tips; 

 rest of tail feathers similar but without the extensive gray tips. Wing, 61 ; tail, 75; 

 bill, 31 mm. The characters given for the under parts distinguish it from all 

 known species of the genus. (See translation of original description).
