(3) Anoplops bicolor ruficeps Salv. &Goclm, 



Gymnopithys ruficeps Salvin & Goclman, Biologia, Aves, ii. p. 222 

 (1892. — " Cauca Yalley," the types are from Neche and Remedies, 

 Antioquia). 



Pithys leucaspis (nee Sclater) Sclater & Salvin, P. Z. S. 1879, 

 p. 526 (Remedios, JSTeche). 



This race is evidently confined to the Cauca Yalley in the 

 province of Antioquia, N. Colombia. Besides three of Salmon's 

 skins in the British Museum (2) and at Tring (1), I have examined 

 five Bogota skins * referable to the same form. A. h. ruficejys 

 differs at a glance from the preceding subspecies in lacking the 

 cinereous colour on the sides of the occiput and in the white of 

 the chest being laterally not bordered with black. It is much 

 more closely related to A. h. olivascens, but of a more rufescent 

 colour throughout. 



(4) Anoplops bicolor daguje Hellra. 



This well-marked form also has a very limited range, being 

 known only from the valleys of the Dagua and San Juan Rivers 

 in Western Colombia. The Tring Museum possesses an adult 

 male obtained by E. Andre near Buenaventura, and another from 

 Juntas, Raap coll. Palmer's three specimens are the only others 

 on record. For characters see above. 



(5) Anoplops bicolor bicolor Lawr. 



Pithys bicolor Lawrence, Ann. Lye. N. H. N.Y. viii. p. 6 (1863. 

 — Pana,ma Railway). 



The " typical" subspecies also has a rather limited disti-ibution, 

 being restricted to Panama and Yeragua, I have examined four 

 skins from the Panama Railroad (McLeannan), one from Chepo, 

 and one from Santa Fe, Yeragua (Arce), all in the British 

 Museum. 



(6) Anoplops bicolor olivascens Ridgw. 



Pithys bicolor olivascens Ridgway, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. xiv. 

 1891, p. 469 (1892.— Santa Ana, Honduras). 



This form is more widely distributed, ranging from Eastern 

 Honduras through ^Nicaragua, and Costa Rica to Chiriqui. There 

 are large series from various localities in the Tring and Munich 

 Museums.
