Cuenca, Nov. 185 7, 1 specimen. "Irides hazel ; legs and feet 

 greenish ; nails flesh-coloured. Climbs up and down and round the 

 branches of trees like a Certhia" 



This apparently new Si//ia//axis'\s most nearly allied to 8. pallida, 

 Max., but may be distinguished by its larger size, white throat, and 

 earthy-brown plumage.

 blue. "Creeping about in the underwood of the deep forest. In the

These specimens are generally darker than T. doliatus, but I do 

 not venture to separate them at present.
