Identical in colour and dimensions with specimens from Western 

 Ecuador. 



A. t. jucunda, which inhabits the low countries of Western 

 Ecuador and Western Colombia, agrees with the typical Central 

 American race in shape and length of the bill, but maybe distin- 

 guished by having the upper mandible fleshy brown (instead of 

 blackish), and the abdomen conspicuously darker smoke-grey. 



A. t. fuscicaudata, from Eastern Colombia (Bogota) and the 

 mountains of Merida, is much smaller, and has a considerably 

 shorter, stouter bill.

This specimen is typical of C. pumilus, which had already been 

 obtained in the same region by Eugene Andre, as well as further 

 north, in Antioquia, by the late T. K. Salmon. Topotypical birds 

 from Ecuador I have not seen. 



G. p>i'^inilus inhabits the mountainous ranges of Ecuador and 

 Western Colombia.
