10. Otus brachyotus (Linn.). 



11. Cotyle flavigastra (Vieill.), Temm. PI. Col. 161. fig. 2. 



A single specimen in M. Botteri's collection seems undoubtedly 

 referable to this species, which I little expected to find so far north. 



12. Cyanomyia cyanocephala (Less.). 



M. Botteri's collection contained specimens of three other Trochi- 

 UdcB, namely Delattria rhami, Amazilius arsinoe, and Trochilus co- 

 lubris, all of which also occurred in M. Salle's series from Cordova. 



13. Salpinctes mexicanus (Sw.), Bp. Consp. p. 224. 



14. Helmitheros celatus (Say), Bp. Consp. p. 315. 



15. Helmitheros ? 



Botteri, no. 130. 



An obscure species, probably the same as no. 64 of Salle's col- 

 lection. 



16. Helmitheros ? 



A small greenish species apparently of this genus, of which I have 

 also specimens in my own collection from Guatimala and Mexico. 



17. Regulus satrapa, Licht. 



A young bird of this species, which has already been noticed as 

 far south as Texas. See Sitgreave's Report, p. 67. 



18. Turdus minor, Gm. ; Bp. Consp. p. 271. — Merula olivacea, 

 Brewer. — Turdus olivaceus, Giraud, B. Long Island, p. 91 (1844). 

 . — Turdus swainsoni, Cab. in Tsch. F. P. p. 48 1 



M. Botteri's examples do not appear to differ much from the N. 

 American bird, and the New Grenadian T. minimus, Lafr., is hardly 

 separable. I have also seen specimens from Guatimala, which are 

 referable to this species. 



19. Turdus solitarius, Wilson; Bp. Consp. p. 270. — Turdus 

 silens, Sw. Phil. Mag. 1827, p. 369. 



This species is easily distinguishable from the last by its rufous 

 tail. It is common in New Jersey, U. S. A., where I obtained spe- 

 cimens in October 1856, and, I believe, in the United States gene- 

 rally. Botteri's examples do not differ from these. 



20. Toxostoma curvirostre (Sw.), vide autea, p. 126. 



21. Mimus polyglottus (Linn.). 



Already noticed by Mr. Swainson (Phil. Mag. 1827, p. 369) as 

 inhabiting Mexico, but M. Botteri's specimen seems smaller; and 

 further examination and comparison of specimens should be made to 

 prove this species identical with the N. American bird.
