Several specimens agreeing with the types from Costa Rica. One 

 of these has a few chestnut feathers on either side of the chin, 

 strengthening the view that this is the adult male of O. castanci- 

 ventris ; their presence does not, however, settle the point, as chest- 

 nut leathers arc not iinfrequently seen in this region in innnature 

 birds of other species, without reference to the coloration of the ma- 

 ture female.

Arce has sent two specimens, both marked female ; neither of 

 these have so brilHant a crown as the supposed male in Mr. Gould's 

 collection.

It is hardly possible to distinguish comj)aratively young birds of 

 this race from the closely allied New Granadan form T. colmnhicu. 

 The last named, however, never appears to assume in old individuals 

 nearly the same extent of blue on the back as is seen in T. venvsta.

There seems to be considerable individual variation between mem- 

 bers of this species ; or I should be inclined to separate, as a distinct 

 race, the bird found in Veragua, a single specimen only of which
