BANGS: BIRDS AND MAMMALS FROM HONDURAS. 147 
spotted with scarlet as in that form; differs in being much more greenish, less 
brownish throughout; throat greenish white instead of fulvous ; sides of 
breast and back much greener, less brown, striping of belly less well marked, 
the dusky stripes paler in color and much less distinct. 
Color. — Adult @, type, pileum black with small, round white spots on 
occiput, and brilliant orange-scarlet tips to the feathers of crown and forehead, 
back dull olive-green without brownish tinge ; wings dusky, the lesser coverts 
edged like back ; secondaries and tertials edged with rather paler, more yel- 
lowish green ; central upper-tail coverts yellowish; tail black, the inner webs 
of central rectrices yellowish white and the two outer pairs much marked with 
the same color; lining of wing dull greenish white; throat and malar region 
greenish white slightly marked with blackish; auriculars dusky brown ; 
breast dull olive-green ; belly, sides, and under-tail coverts, pale, dull olive- 
yellow striped with dull olive — the striping rather indistinct and irregular. 
The adult 9 differs from the ¢ only in having the whole pileum black with 
small, round white spots. 
Measurements. -— Adult $ , type, wing, 52.; tail, 26.5; tarsus, 11.8; exposed 
culmen, 12.2. Adult 9 topotype, No. 10,329 ; wing, 52.; tail, 27.; tarsus, 13. ; 
exposed culmen, 11.4. 
Remarks. — The new form ranges through Honduras and Nicaragua, though 
its exact mits are not at present known. It is, however, wholly isolated from 
the South American species it most nearly resembles, by Picumnus olivaceus 
flavotinctus Ridg., which occupies Panama, Chiriqui, and Costa Rica. In the 
large series I have examined (my specimens from Panama, Chiriqui, and Hon- 
duras and the considerable series in the U. S. National Museum) I find no 
sign of intergradation between P. olivaceus flavotinctus and P. dimotus. 
Much confusion of the various races of this group of Picumnus has pre- 
vailed, until very recently, when Hartert (Novitates Zoologice, 1902, Vol. IX., 
pp- 606 and 607) distinguished them in a masterly way. The northern form 
which I have just described appears, however, to have been wholly unknown 
to Hartert.
