Miiller (Natursystem. Suppl., 1776, p. 83) bases his description of 

 Ramphastos atricoUis on Buffon (ex. PI. Enl., 166), and gives as t^^e- 

 locality " Brazil." Berlepsch and Hartert (Nov. zool., 1902, 9, p. 102), 

 considering the type-locality " Brazil" an error, substitute " Cayenne." 



DaubentoA's plate certainly does not picture the Brazilian bird, 

 which has a narrow, black longitudinal band on the ridge of the cul- 

 men, but the northern form with the broad, black band. We think 

 that Berlepsch and Hartert were justified in correcting the type- 

 locality. Pteroglossus aracari roraimac Brabourne & Chubb (Ann. 

 mag. nat. hist., 1912, 10, p. 261), t;yT)e-locality "Mount Roraima," is 

 thus a synonym of P. a. atricoUis (P. L. S. Miill.).
