A specimen of this Basilcuterns sent by Aice agrees well wltli a 

 Bogota specimen, wliicli must be ascribed to B. mesochrysus, Scl., 

 its wings considerably exceeding in length those of a Guatemalan 

 specimen of B. delattrii, Bp., the bill being much larger, and the 

 yellow of the under plumage brighter. I have little doubt Baird is 

 light in referring the Costa Rican specimens to this race, which seems 

 to maintain these constant differences. Northwards of Costa Rica 

 its place is occupied by B. delattrii, Bp., which extends its range 

 over the whole of Guatemala (South Mexico doubtfully). In South 

 Mexico B. delattrii again gives way to B. rvffrons, Sw,, a race which 

 is also found very rarely in Guatemala (Salvin, Ibis, 1866, p. 192).

Besides a specimen from the above locality', Arce has, in a previous 

 collection, sent a specimen of this species from Costa Rica; so that 

 this representative of the section of Basileuterus, of which B. semi- 

 cervinus is the type, belongs clearly to the Central American fauna.

Cordillera de Tole. 



I also possess a specimen from Costa Rica, the country whence 

 Baird's types were obtained, collected by Arce, agreeing with this 

 Veraguan example.
