Habitat : Santarelli, Amazon inf. 



Typus : in Mus. H. v. B. c? ad., Paricatuba, near Santarem 

 21st June, 1893, "in the sedges of the river Amazon." 

 [A. Schulz leg.] 



This fine new species, which I have dedicated to the 

 distinguished Director of the " Museu Goeldi " of Para, is 

 easily distinguishable from its nearest ally, 8. columbiana 

 Cab., of Venezuela and Leopoldina on the Rio Araguay (from 

 where I got specimens, collected by Dr. v. d. Steinen), hj 

 being much larger, and by the extension of the fiery orange 

 colour of the forehead over the whole pileum to the nape. The 

 back is of a brighter, more yellowish, less greenish tint, and 

 the under parts are of a fine orange-yellow, instead of being 

 greenish-yellow . 



There are two adult males in the Mus. Berlepsch, collected 

 by Mr. Albert Schulz, at Paricatuba near Santarem on the 

 Lower Amazon.

Habitat : Vacas (Bolivia alta or.), Puno (Peruvia alta 

 ìnerid. or.). 



Typus : In Mus. H. v. B. 6 ad. Vacas, 29th August 1890. 

 [G-. Garlepp leg. No. 801.] 



This is a large form of Phrygilus alaudinus Kittl. (of Chile, 

 Argentina, Western Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador), replacing it 

 in Eastern High Bolivia and South-eastern High Peru. It 

 was first discovered by M. G. Garlepp near Vacas, in the 

 Andes east of Cochabamba, and afterwards found by M. J. 

 Kalinowski near Puno, in the province of Marcapata, 

 South-east Peru.
