210 MR. 0. SALVIN ON THE BIRDS OF VERAGUA. [Mar. 24, 
Gould as H. violifrons (H. barroti, Mon. Troch. t. 217; H. violifrons, 
Intr. p. 122), and conclude that Carthagena, and not Veragua, must 
be its proper habitat.

The differences pointed out by Cabanis and Lawrence between 
Costa-Rican and New-Granadan specimens of this bird appear to . 
me to be exceedingly slight; and, so far as a considerable series of 
specimens show, the points of distinction are not so constantly pre- 
sent as seems requisite for the recognition of specific difference 
between the two races.

This species is sparingly distributed throughout Central America, 
as far north as Coban in Vera Paz.

The range of this species seems almost entirely restricted to 
Veragua. We have a single specimen which was collected on the 
Panama Railway-line by the late Mr. J. M‘Leannan.

Since the above species was described we have received numerous 
specimens, both from Costa Rica and Veragua. The adult bird is 
exceedingly like HZ. eximia of Guatemala, but seems to differ con- 
stantly in the greater amount of white on the rectrices. Mr. 
Lawrence has given (J. c.) a carefully drawn account of the specific 
differences between the two species.

Arcé procured specimens of both sexes of this remarkable species
