984 MESSRS. SCLATER AND SALVIN ON PERUVIAN BIRDS. [DeC. 12, 



1. TuRDUS CHiGUANCo, D'Orb. et Lafr. 



Islay and Arequipa, May and June, several specimens varying a 

 little in size. "Bill bright yellow; eye reddish hazel; legs, toes, 

 and claws bright yellow." 



2. Troglodytes tessellatus, Lafr. et D'Orb. Mag. de Zool. 

 1836, p. 25 ; D'Orb. Voy. Ois. p. 232. 



Arequipa, several examples. 



3. Anthus rtjfus (Gm.) ; Baird, Rev. A. B. i. p. 156. 

 Two specimens from Islay. 



4. HiRUNDO ANDicoLA, Lafr. et D'Orb. Syn. Av. in Mag. de 

 Zool. 1837, p. 69. 



Two examples from Arequipa, May. These skins are the first 

 we have seen of this distinct species. The feet are proportionally 

 small, and the middle toe adheres to the outer fully to the end of 

 the basal joint. The nostrils are lateral, and partially overhung. 

 The tarsi are quite nude. The tail is very nearly square, the middle 

 rectrices being barely shorter than the outer. The species does not 

 appear to fit any of the subdivisions given by Baird, R. A. B. p. 2/1. 



5. Atticora cyanoleuca (Vieill.) ; Baird, R. A. B. p. 310. 

 Peti'ochelidon cyanoleuca, Sclater, Cat. A. B. p. 40. 



Two specimens of this widely distributed species from Arequipa. 



6. Conirostrum cinereum, D'Orb. et Lafr. Mag. de Zool. 

 1838, p. 25 ; D'Orb. Voy. Ois. p. 374, t. 59. f. i ; Cassin, Pr. Acad. 

 Phil. 1864, p. 272. 



Arequipa, many specimens of both sexes. The females are of a 

 browner and more olivaceous tinge. The bird figured by D'Orbigny 

 appears to be a male. We cannot quite agree with Mr. Cassin in 

 considering Sclater's C.fraseri identical with this bird. C.fraseri 

 has the superciliaries and body below of a pale rufous, and the head 

 is much darker. But the two species are certainly near allies. The 

 irides of this species are noted " dark hazel." 



7. DiGLOssA BRUNNEivENTRis, Lafr. Rev. Zool. 1846, p. 318; 

 DesMurs, Icon. Orn. t. 43 ; Cassin, Proc. Acad. Ph. 1864, p. 274. 



Chihuata, alt. 9000 feet; one example, July 1867, marked male. 

 See Sclater's remarks upon Des Murs's incorrect locality for this 

 bird, antea, p. 322. 



8. Tanagra darwini, Bp. 



Several examples of this species from Arequipa. " Eyes pinkish 

 hazel." 



9. Pheucticus chrysogaster (Less.). 



Two examples, from Arequipa and Islay (May and June), ap|)a- 

 rently immature male and female, of this species.
