1876. J MESSRS. SCLATER AND SALVIN ON BOLIVIAN BIRDS. 253 



and much lamented Commodore Goodenough, who met his death 

 whilst out with Messrs. Perry and Corrie on an entomological excur- 

 sion. 



Family Papilionid,e. 



Genus Belenois, Hiibner. 



10. Belenois niseia, McLeay (one male). 



Havannah Harbour, Vate or Sandwich Island. 



The single example sent differs a little from the Australian type, 

 inasmuch as it resembles B. clytie 3 on the upperside ; but, with- 

 out seeing more specimens, it would be unsafe to consider it a dis- 

 tinct species. 



7. Descriptions of new Birds obtained by Mr. C. Buckley in 

 Bolivia. By P. L. Sclater, M.A.," Ph.D., F.R.S., and 



OSBERT SALVIN, M.A., F.R.S. 



[Received January 14, 1876.] 



A collection of bird -skins formed by Mr. C. Buckley during his 

 recent expedition into Bolivia, at several localities on the eastern 

 slope of the main chain of the Andes, contains about 250 specimens, 

 referable to 133 species. As a second collection is shortly expected 

 from Mr. Buckley, we reserve a full account of the first one until the 

 series is complete, and for the present only give descriptions of the 

 new species which it contains. These are : — 



1. DlGLOSSA GLAXJCA, Sp. UOV. 



Ex cinereo ceerulescens fere unicolor ; alis caudaque nigris cceruleo 

 limbatis : subtus obscurior, remigum marginibus internis cine- 

 reis : rostro corneo, mandibula inferior e ad basin alba, pedibus 

 nigris: long, iota 4*0, alee 2'3, caudce 1*6. 

 Sab. Nairapi, Bolivia {Buckley). 

 Mus. S.-G. 



Of this new Diglossa Mr. Buckley sends but one specimen. It 

 is a small species belonging to the "homochroous" section of Sclater's 

 arrangement (Ibis, 1875, p. 207), and may be best placed between 

 D. plumb ea and D. personata. From the latter it is distinguishable 

 by its much inferior size, from the former by its colour. 



2. BUARREMON MELANOPS, Sp. UOV. 



Buarremon rufi nucha, Sclater, Cat. A. B. p. 91 (nee Lafr. et 

 D'Orb.). 



Supra niger ; pileo cum nucha castaneo ; lateribus capitis et mento 

 summo nigris : subtus Jiavus, hypochrondriis et crisso in oliva- 

 eeurn transeuntibus: rostro nigro, pedibus obscure comets: long, 

 tota 6*0, aim 2 - 7, caudce 2"6.
