Mr. Finsch informs me thathe first became acquainted with this 
fine species in Prince Max. of Wied’s collection. Subsequently he 
received information that several examples were in the Vienna Mu- 
seum, collected by the late J. Natterer in the vicinity of Borba. 
Through the obliging kindness of Herr August von Pelzeln I have 
obtained in exchange one of these specimens (which I now exhibit) 
for my own collection. 
2. BROTOGERYS CHRYSOSEMA, Natt. MS. 
Aff. B. notato, Bodd., sed colore viridi clariore et flavidiore : pri- 
mariarum tectricibus aureis nec aurantiacis, fronte flavescente,

summo cerulescentiore differt. 
Long. tota 6°75, ale 4°7, caudze 2°5. 
Hab. In Brasilia (Natt.). 
This species is also one of Natterer’s discoveries, and was com- 
municated to Mr. Finsch by Herr von Pelzeln. I have to thank the 
latter gentleman for the typical specimen which I exhibit. 
3. CHRYSOTIS FINSCHI, Sp. nov. 
Similis C. viridigenali, sed paulo major ; plumis corporis inferioris 
nigro distinctius marginatis: fronte angusta, purpurascenti- 
rubra: pilei plumis elongatiusculis, viridibus, ceruleo margi- 
natis: rostro albo. 
Hab. In Mexico. 
Mus. Brit. 
The British Museum contains a single example of this fine species 
of Chrysotis, purchased from a dealer, and stated to be from Mexico. 
It was marked by Mr. Finsch, during his recent visit to this country, 
as being distinct from C. viridigenalis (to which it is nearly allied), 
and such is evidently the case. I therefore propose to call it by 
Mr. Finsch’s name. 
I have recently obtained examples of the true C. viridigenalis 
(C. coccineifrons, Souancé) from the Isthmus of Panama.
