1870.] MR. J. GOULD ON TWO SPECIES OF HUMMING-BIRDS. 803 
gestive system, and urino-generative organs of this animal, as ob- 
served in the male specimen which died in the Society’s Gardens in 
1870*. 
This paper will be published in the Society’s ‘Transactions.’ 

Mr. Gould brought under the notice of the Meeting two species 
of Humming-birds, which he believed to be new to science, and for 
which he proposed the names of Chetocercus bombus and Tha- 
lurania hypochlora. They formed part of a collection made by Mr. 
W. Buckley in the temperate parts of Ecuador during the autumn 
of the present year, 1870. This collection was remarkable for the 
absence of many of the species, and even of the forms, inhabiting the 
high lands around Quito, and for the presence of others which are 
mostly found in Venezuela, Veragua, and Costa Rica. 
The collection comprised about 130 specimens of thirty species, 
of which the following was a list, with the localities wherein they 
were obtained :—
