(1005) Phoethornis guyi emilise {Bourc. & Muls.). 



Trochilus emilice Botjec. & Muls., Ann. Sci. Phys. et Nat. Lyon, IX, 1846, p. 317 

 (Bogotd, Colombia). 



Phcethornis guyi emilia Simon & Dalmas, Ornis, 1901, p. 217 (La Tigra; Las 

 duces). 



Found in the Subtropical Zone of all three ranges. Specimens from 

 western Colombia seem to show a slight approach toward P. g. coruscus 

 in their somewhat bluer rump.

Phaethornis yarv^ui sancti-johannis Hellm., BuU. B. O. C, XXVII, 1911, p. 92 

 (Condoto, Rio Condoto, Choo6); P. Z. S., 1911, p. 1178 (Noanamd; N6vita; Con-

 Simon & Dalmas, Ornis, XI, 1901, p. 218 (Buenaventura). 



Inhabits the Tropical Zone of the Pacific coast. It differs from yaruqui 

 of western Ecuador, of which I have thirteen specimens, mainly in its grayer 

 underparts. Four specimens from Barbacoas appear to belong here rather 

 than with yaruqui. They are not, however, fully adult.

(1009) Phoethornis fraterculus moorei Lawr. 

 Phoethornis moorei Lawr., Ann. Lyo. N. Y., VI, 1858, p. 259 (Nape, Ecuador). 



Found in the Tropical Zone of Amazonian Colombia. Comparison with 

 Lawrence's type (A. M. N. H., No. 37084) shows that our Colombian speci- 

 mens should be referred, as might be expected, to the east Ecuador form. 

 This race agrees in size with British Guiana specimens of fraterculus ( = 

 superciliosus Auct., cf. Hellm. Nov. Zool., 1907, p. 393) but is less rufescent 

 below.
