A specimen of this apparently new Synallaxis is in the Gallery of 

 the Jardin des Plantes at Paris. It is marked " Bogota, RiefFer, 

 1843." It does not very closely resemble any species with which I 

 am acquainted, and is rather remarkable as being striated both above 

 and below.

I have received a single example of this fine Thrush from MM. 

 Verreaux, with the MS. name attached, which I have adopted. It 

 is quite distinct from every other bird of the group hitherto de- 

 scribed, but may be placed near Turdus migratorius of the IJ. S.
