" Iris brown, feet grey or blackish, maxilla black, mandible

Identical with topotypical skins from North-western Ecuador. 

 The upper parts are light olivaceous green, the throat, chest, and 

 sides somewhat duller. On the eastern (Amazonian) slope of 

 the Colombian and Ecuadorian Andes this form is replaced by 

 typical G. h. holochlora. 



The locality " Pasto " requires confirmation. The specimen is 

 typical of C. h. litce. 



C. h. litce is restricted to the lowlands and foot-hills of 

 W. Colombia and N.W. Ecuador.
