47. Zenaida auriculata, Gray ; Bp. Consp. ii, p. 82.

48. Metriopelia aymara, Knip et Prev. ; B]). Consp. ii. p. 76. 

 One skin of this scarce species, from Salinas. 



49. CHAMJiPELiA erythrothorax (Meycn). 



Two specimens from Arequipa. "Eyes dark blue." We believe 

 that this species, which has been hitherto called Chamcepelia anais 

 (Less.) , lias an older name in Columba erythrothorax, Meyen, Acta 

 Leopoldino-Car.vohxvi. Suppl. p. 98, t. Mi {Chamcepelia monticola, 

 Isch. K r. pp. 45, 276; Columbula erythrothorax, Bp. ii. p. 80) 

 Ihe only discrepancy to be discovered is that Meyen's fi-ure doe^ 

 not show the naked eye. Meyeiis specimen is stated to have been 

 obtamed from the Andes above Arequipa.

 Oreophilus totanirostris, Jard. & Selb. 111. Orn. iii. ]♦. lai. 

 A single male specimen in adult plumage, from Islay. 



53. Thinocorus rumicivorus, Eschscholtz. 



A s.peci,nen of this bird from Islay is much smaller in dimensions 

 than Chilian and Argentine examples, and agrees in this respect with 

 a skin recently received by Sclater from Lima (Prof. Nation) It 

 is also rather paler in colouring.

 p. 137, t. -48, 49. 



Three examples of this species, from Salinas. Eyes of male speci- 

 men marked " dark hazel."
