10. Ceryle torquata (Linn.). 

 Jalapa. 



11. Ceryle amazon a (Lath.). 



Jalapa. 



Agrees with S. A. examples. 



12. XlPHOCOLAPTES ALBICOLLIS (Vieill.) ? 



A fine bird of the section of Dendrocolaptince which embraces the 

 larger species (albicollis, major, promeropirhynchus, &c), is in M. 

 Salle's collection from the vicinity of Jalapa. It is the first of the 

 genus that I have seen from the country northward of Panama, and 

 a full series of specimens would possibly show that it was different 

 from the S. A. X. albicollis, to which I have referred it provision- 

 ally. Lafresnaye, in his ' Monograph,' has employed the name Ben- 

 drocolaptes for this section, but that name is rightly applicable to 

 the B. cayanensis and its affines, for which he has used the generic 

 term Bendrocops.

S. Andres Tuxtla. 



14. Rhimamphus ./Estivus (Lath.). 

 Jalapa and S. Andres Tuxtla. 



15. Sylvicola Americana (Linn.), Wilson's Am. Orn. pi. 28. 

 f. 3. 



Tlacotalpam. 



I am rather surprised to find tliis bird so far to the south. I 

 should rather have expected to see its Central American representa- 

 tive S. mexicana (Bp. Consp. p. 310). 



16. Basileuterus chrysophrys, Bp. Consp. p. 314. 

 Olivaceo-viridis : gutture et corpore medio subtusjlavis : lateribus 



olivaceis : pileo et capitis lateribus intense castaneis : super- 

 ciliis latis et longis, aureis : fronte et superciliorum marginibus 

 superioribus nigris : rostro nigro : pedibus pallide fiavis. 

 Long, tota 5*0, alse 2*3, caudse 2*1. 



This very pretty species of Basileuterus is shortly characterized 

 by Prince Bonaparte in his ' Conspectus ' from the specimen in the 

 Berlin Museum. M. Sally's examples were obtained in the vicinity 

 of Jalapa. 



17. Regulus calendula (L.), Wils. Am. Orn. pi. 5. f. 3. 

 Jalapa. 



18. Turdus assimilis, Cab. Mus. Hein. p. 4. 



Jalapa and Vigia. 



This fine Thrush is very closely allied to a well-known S. Ame-
