visable to pay too much attention to them, particularly as I have 

 already been led into error by following them as a guide instead of 

 the letter-press. This bird may be recognized among its congeners 

 by the yellow bend of the wing, by the want of the red wing-mark, 

 and by the blue patch on the outer web of the exterior pair of 

 tail-feathers, the inner web, and both webs of the second, third, 

 fourth and fifth pair having a large red spot, and the middle pair 

 being wholly green. The same bird is in the British Museum from 

 New Grenada (Bogota).

An example of this peculiar S. American genus is in the collection, 

 which M. Jules Verreaux considers referable to a new species. Such 

 is very probably the case, unless it be the same as one of the two new 

 Psophia, lately described by Pelzeln in the ' Sitzungsberichte ' of the
