502 Messrs. sclater and salvin on [June 3, 



90. Pyranga .estiva (Gm.) 



Concordia, Frontino. (Mus. S.-G.) 

 Iris dark. 



91. Pyranga testacea, Scl. et Salv. P. Z.S. 1868, p. 388. 



Concordia, Medellin. (Mus. S.-G. and P. L. S.) 

 Mr. Salmon's skins appear to be referable to this Central-American 

 form rather than to the Brazilian P. saira. 



92. Pyranga rtjbriceps, Gray; Scl. P. Z. S. 1856, p. 125. 



Medellin, Sta. Elena. (Mus. S.-G. and P. L. S.) 



Iris dark. 



In the female of this species, of which Mr. Salmon has sent a 

 single specimen (Mus. P. L. S.), the scarlet colour is confined to the 

 summit of the head and the throat, instead of pervading the upper 

 back and breast as in the male. 



93. Orthogonys olivaceus, Cassin, Pr. Ac. Sc. Phil. 1860, 

 p. 140, et ibid. 1864, pi. ii. 



Remedios, Neche. (Mus. S.-G. and P. L. S.) 



Iris dark. Food, fruit. 



Mr. Salmon has sent home two skins of this remarkable bird, 

 which upon the whole has, we think, been correctly assigned by Mr. 

 Cassin to Orthogonys, though not quite typical in form. It has 

 proportionally shorter wings and tail. Mr. Cassia's specimens 

 were obtained during the Atrato Expedition oa the river Truando. 

 With this exception ao other examples, so far as we are aware, are 

 known. 



94. Phozntcothratjpis gutturalis, Scl. Ann. Nat. Hist. xiii. 

 p. 95 (1854); Wyatt, Ibis, 1871, p. 326. 



Remedios. (Mus. P. L. S. and S.-G.) 



Iris dark. Food, fruit. 



Eggs (no. 96) pale greyish white, moltled, especially at the larger 

 end, with red-brown and lilac spots: axis 1*1, diam. '71. (See Plate 

 XLII. fig. 4.) 



" The nest is cup-shaped, rather deep, and loosely made of coarse 

 roots and fibres, lined with fine stalks &c. of ferns, and placed in 

 low bushes by the side of mountain-streams." — T. K. S. 



95. Phcenicothraupis cristata, Lawrence, Ann. Lye. N. H, 

 New York, xi. p. 70 (1875). 



Frontino. (Mus. P. L. S. and S.-G.) 



Iris dark. 



Two examples of this species, which, though like P. rubica and 

 its allies in coloration, differs, as Mr. Lawrence remarks, in its 

 well-developed crest.
