Although the type of the above description is evidently a 

 bird of the year, and not quite mature, I have no doubt that 

 it belongs to an undescribed species, which I have named 

 after the late Mr. August von Pelzeln, to whom we owe our 

 first knowledge of the more obscure species of Elaemia. E. 

 peheJyii differs from all other species of this genus by its 

 brownish coloration, without any green tints. There is no 

 white in the crest, the mesial line of the belly is white, the 

 under tail-coverts are white and mixed with yellowish. The 

 under wing-coverts are fulvous, and there are two well-marked 

 rufescent wing-bauds formed by the margins of the larger 

 and middle wing-coverts. The bill is rather stout, still more 

 so than in E. flavogaster.
