New Grenada—wheuce so many new forms have lately been sent to 
Europe—on the one side, and the wood regions of Peru and Bolivia, 
where Von Tschudi and D’Orbigny pursued their laborious researches 
in natural history, on the other. 
Mr. Gould having most liberally placed this collection in my hands 
for examination, I have drawn up a complete list of the species as far 
as I can determine them satisfactorily, in order to show the character 
of the ornithology of this country—observing that Mr. Gould is ex- 
pecting fresh consignments from the same quarter, which will doubt- 
less much further increase our knowledge of the fauna of this highly 
interesting region.

This fine spine-tailed Swift seems generally distributed over the 
northern portion of the continent. It was observed by Prince Max. 
of Neuwied in many provinces of Brazil, by Schomburgk in British 
Guiana, and Sir William Jardine has examples transmitted by Profesor 
Jameson from the vicinity of Quito. Mr. Gosse has recorded its ap- 
pearance in Jamaica.

the breast, which does not appear in examples of the older species.
