This form, inhabiting S.W. Colombia and N.W. Ecuador, 

 seems to be sufficiently distinct from all the known species to 

 be entitled to a new specific name. 



It is perhaps nearest to E. griseigularis Sci., from Eastern 

 Ecuador, and has the white in the crown of equal extension, 

 but is easily to be distinguished in having the mesial line of 

 the belly pale yellow mixed with whitish (instead of being- 

 pure white). The breast is olive-green (instead of being 

 greyish-white), the colour of the upperparts is also lighter 

 and more greenish-olive, and the wings and the tail are 

 shorter.
