cidedly well-marked race, differing in its brighter, more golden olive 

 coloration above and on the sides of the head, and deeper, more golden 

 orange hue of the under surface, including the tail. The red of the 

 pileum is also perceptibly brighter, but the dusky area, on the distal 

 portion of the primaries is about the same. Measurements are as fol- 

 lows :

There is thus very little difference in size between this and the 

 typical form, except that the tail is a little shorter in aurosus. 



The present records constitute a considerable extension of the known 

 range of this woodpecker,' heretofore known only from eastern Pan- 

 ama. It is evidently a Tropical Zone form, apparently most numerous 

 in the region around the Cienaga Grande, where three of the four 

 specimens were taken. They were all found near water or marshy 

 ground, and very likely farther out, nearer the Cienaga Grande and 

 Magdalena River, the bird may be more numerous. The securing of 

 a single example at Don Diego, on the north coast, was most unex- 

 pected. One bird was noted at Valle de Upar, in the Rio Cesar Valley, 

 early in August, 1920, but not secured.
