Habitat : Colombia : Bogota coll. (Mus. H. v. B., Mus. 

 Nehrkorn). Venezuela, Orinoco: Suapure (Elages leg.). 

 1ST.W. Brazil : Marabitanas, B, ISTegro (batterer). E. Ecuador : 

 Sarayacu (Buckley). 1ST. E. Peru: Chaniicuros (Bartlett). 



In my collection there is a trade-skin from Bogota 

 which might be the young of E. cinerea,. It is evidently a 

 bird in transition plumage, and has the back of a bright 

 olive-green. 



Serpophaga piarambae Hellm. (Bull. B.O.C. XIY., 54), 

 resembles very much E. cinerea, but has a much shorter 

 tail, and the bill is that of Serpophaga.
