111. ANABAZENOPS RUFO-SUPERCILIATUS (Lafr.). 
3. Sierras de Totoral, Catamarea, Arg. Rep., July 26, 1880. 
Iris light brown. 
A very wild bird, and exceedingly scarce on this well-wooded 
mountain-range, but occasionally seen amongst the brushwood in 
damp places on the hill-side. 
112. Srrrasomus outvaceus (Max.). 
3. Campo Santo, Salta, Arg. Rep., Nov. 29, 1880. 
 . Campo Colorado, Oran, Salta, Arg. Rep., Nov. 4, 1880. 
Observed, but not abundantly, in the magnificent gloomy forests of 
Campo Colorado, yet very difficult to distinguish, being of the same 
hue as the trunks up which they run. 
113. GLYPHORHYNCHUS CUNEATUS (Licht.). 
3. Concepcion, Misiones, Arg. Rep., June 27, 1881. 
Iris dark. 
Not uncommon in the thick woods, as also in the extensive orange- 
groves around the old Jesuit ruins, 
114. DenpRocoLaPTEs picumNus (Licht.). 
2. Concepcion, Misiones, Arg. Rep., June 21, 1881. 
Shot in the thickest parts of woods near the river, climbing up 
the trees, around which it turned in corkscrew fashion; but does 
not seem common. 
115. DryMornIs BRIDGES! (Eyton). 
@. Pilciao near Andalgala,-Catamarca, Arg. Rep., Sept. 17, 1880. 
Iris brown. 
The ery of this bird is much the same as that of a Woodpecker, 
and it clings to the algarroba trees in a similar way; but in the after- 
noon it is seen scattered about on the sandy ground in the pursuit 
of insects. I have observed it in the northern provinces of the 
Republic, perhaps as far south as Cordova, although in one instance, 
in the month of February, a friend of mine obtained a single speci- 
men at Monte Grande, in the vicinity of Buenos Aires. Not in one 
solitary instance, however, have I met with the bird to the eastward, 
in Corrientes or Misiones. 
[Mr. White calls this species Nasica longirostris ; but I have little 
doubt itis Drymornis bridgesi, of which I have skins from Mendoza, 
and Gualeguaychu, in Entrerios. Nasica is from Guiana and 
Amazonis, and does not occur so far south.—P. L. S.]

@. San Javier, Misiones, Arg. Rep., June 7, 1881. 
117. X1eHOCOLAPTES MAJOR (Vieill.). 
3 Q- Campo Colorado, Oran, Salta, Arg. Rep., Nov. 4, 1880. 
Tris crimson. 
Common here in the dense forest, where their continued hard 
pecking at the lofty tree-trunks is very accentuated. Two or three
