42. Glyphorhynchus castelnaudi, Des Murs, Voy. Cast, et 

 Dev. Ois. pi. 15. fig. 2. 



Irides hazel. Three ex. Seems hardly diflFereut from Brasilian ex- 

 amples of G. cuneatus, as far as I have hitherto been able to com- 

 pare it. Mr. Fraser has sent the nest and eggs of this species, 

 taken near San Jorge (Pallatanga), October 1858. It was placed iu 

 a hole in a large tree only about 3 feet from the ground. The nest 

 is scanty, as is usually the case with birds which breed in such situa- 

 tions, consisting of a small quantity of moss and fine roots mixed 

 with dead wood. The eggs, two in number, are of a pure white, 

 and rather broad in comparison to their length. They measure 0*8 

 by 0-7 inch.

Five ex. "Irides dark hazel." 



44. Anabates temporalis, sp. nov. 

 Rufescenti-brunneus, cauda ferruginea ; capite olivascente, ocu- 



lorum ambilu et superciliis ante oculum angustis cum gula fata 

 stramineis, striga superciliari post oculum^ pectore toto et tec- 

 tricibus subalaribus dare cinnamomeis : ventre crissoque fusees- 

 centibus : rostro fuscescenti-viridi, apice pallidiore : pedibus 

 fuscis. 



Long, tota 6*0, alse 3*6, caudse 2*5. 



Two ex. " Irides hazel." 



45. Synallaxis elegans, Sclater.

 legs and feet green." 



46. Dysithamnus unicolor, sp. nov. 



Obscure schistaceus unicolor : alis caudaque nigricantioribus : 



subalaribus alba variegatis : rostro nigro, pedibus plumbeis. 

 $ . Obscure ferruginea, subtvs dilutior : lateribus capitis cineras- 



centioribus. 

 Long, tota 5-6, alse 2-8, caudse 2*3. 



A pair of these birds, " from the lower trees and underwood : 

 irides grey." The species must be placed next to D. schistaceus of 

 my Synopsis. It differs in its shorter stouter bill, the white mark- 

 ings beneath the wings, and want of white terminations to the rec- 

 trices. The brown bird is marked by Mr. Fraser as ' male ;' but I 

 have little doubt this is wrong.
