specimens from Iguape, Santos, and Sao Sebastiao ; but I see by 

 the newspapers, that some have also been captured on the coast 

 o£ Espiritu Santo. I observed this Penguin on the coast of E,io 

 G-rande do Sul in 1883. The extension of its winter excursions 

 to the coast of Sao Paulo dates back only three or four years. 



The northern element of the Sao Paulo Avifauna is very large, 

 and has been considerably increased by my investigations. 



Prom the littoral zone especially, i. e. Iguape, we have obtained 

 examples of a number of common Bahia birds, not hitherto known 

 to occur in Sao Paulo. These are such species as Donacobius 

 airicapilhis, Dacnis speciosa, Tanagm palmarum, Thryophilus 

 longior, Rhamplioccdus hrasUius, Sycalis flaveola, Elainea pagana, 

 Lathria virussu, Dendrocinda turdina, Formicivora rvfatra, 

 F. ferruginea, F. squamata, Ehamphoccenus melanurus, Formicarius 

 cotma, Me^'ulaxis rhinolophus, Agyrtria teplirocephala, Pyrrhura 

 leucotis, Urochroma wiedi, Cancromii cochlearia, and Guara t'uhra. 



As genera of this northern element which are not found 

 southward of the State of Sclo Paulo, we may name : — Thryophilus, 

 Donacohius, Ehamiyhocceliis, Capsiempis, Legatus, Myiozetetes, 

 Rhyncliocyclus, Oonopias, Megarhynchus, Muscivora, Myiochanes, 

 Ptilochloris, Chiromachceris,Neopehna, Hadrostomus,Attila, Philydor, 

 Biatas, Corythopis, Lathria, Dendrocinda, Hhamphoccenus, 

 Formicarius, Merulaxis, Florisuga, Nonnula, Jacamaralcyon, 

 Bucco, UrocJiroma, Busarellus, Buleogallus, Thrasaetus, Leptodon, 

 Anhinga, Scardafella, Grax, Porzana, Porphyriola, Palamedea, 

 Oancroma, and Guara. 



To these may possibly be added Lipaugus simplex and Pipra 

 leucocilla, mentioned from Sao Paulo without exact localities by 

 Joyner, but not met with by other observers. 



It may be useful to add here the names of species observed by 

 Euler atCantagallo, in the State of Eio, which hitherto have not been 

 observed in Sao Paulo, namely : — Atticora tibialis Cass, (perhaps an 

 erroneous determination), Ghlorophanes sjnza, Nemosia flavicoUis, 

 Thlypopsis sordida, Pitylus brasiliensis, Phonip>ara fuliginosa, Gory- 

 phosphingus pileatus, Icterus tibialis, Alectrurus risorius, Euscarth- 

 mus limbatus, Phyllomyias griseocapilla, Pipra rubricapilla, Machce- 

 ropterus regulus, Gotinga cincta, Galyptura cristata, Picolaptes 

 squamatus, Thatnnophili doliatus, palliatus, torquatus, and ambi- 

 guus, Myrmotherula melanogaster and ill. brevicauda, Terenura 

 maculata, Myrmeciza loricata, Percnostola funebris, Gonopophaga 

 melanops, Glaucis hirsuta, IfylocJiaris cyanea, Pygmornis pygmceus, 

 Prymnacantha langsdorffi, Chloronerpes brasiliensis, Dendrobates 

 maculifrons, Ghelidoptera tenebrosa brasiliensis, Neomorphusgeoffroyi, 

 Chrysotis farinosa, Asturina nitida, Morphnus guyanensis, Harpagus 

 bidentatus, Falco aurantius, and Gryptur us pileatus. 



It is possible that some of these species may occur in the littoral 

 zone of Sao Paulo also : but many of them are certainly absent 

 there, as, for example, Gotinga cincta and Pipra rubricilla. Trogon 

 aurantius of Eio and Northern Brazil is in Sao Paulo replaced by
