Rio Javarri. 



On the receipt of this specimen from the Rio Javarri, it imme- 

 diately occurred to me that Dr. Hartlaub's Tanagra iridina from 

 Mogobamba in Peru was much more likely to belong to this species 

 (generally known as "elegantissima") than to the T. velia of 

 Cayenne, with which it is usually associated. I therefore de- 

 spatched specimens of both birds to Bremen, with a request to Dr. 

 Hartlaub to compare his type with them. Dr. Hartlaub states in 

 reply, that although in his specimen there is a distinct greenish hue 

 on the sides of the head, he considers his T. iridina to be without 

 doubt the same as T. elegantissima, and not as T. velia. It be- 

 comes necessary, therefore, to use the specific appellation iridina, as 

 the earliest given for this Tanager.
