Titiacun, 2 ex. <$ , called "El solitario." Irides grey. Contents 

 of stomach grasshoppers and other insects. 



I have had an example of this bird in my collection for some time. 

 It was received from Verreaux, and is marked • Quito.'' Mr. Fraser 

 remarks that it has a " loud distinct single note, which is repeated 

 several times."

 same genus as the next following species, to which it is closely re- 

 lated in general structure, though it must perhaps ultimately be 

 removed into a different section.
