The bird we have described above appears to be very closely allied 
to O. albiventris, which it probably represents in the more southern 
portion of Brazil. Mr. G. R. Gray having named the single specimen 
in the British Museum “ O. sqguamata, Lesson,” we have followed 
his determination, although Lesson’s description is, as usual, short 
and vague, and would be equally applicable to more than one other 
member of the genus. Our characters of this species are taken from 
a skin belonging to the Smithsonian Institution, which was collected 
in Brazil by Mr. Lemuel Wells, probably in the province of Santa 
Catarina.

Similis O. guttate, sed crassitie majore, fronte albicante, et 
cervicis plumarum marginibus angustius albis distinguenda. 
We have a single specimen of this bird, received in exchange 
from the Vienna Museum, under the name we have adopted for it. 
It is labelled ‘ Bogota, Boissoneau.” There is a single skin in the 
British Museum well agreeing with it, which Mr. Gray has called 
Ortalida adspersa; but having one of Tschudi’s type specimens of 
O. adspersa, we have been enabled to decide that this name is merely 
a synonym of O. guttata.
