Common in the Temperate Zone of all three ranges. Specimens from 

 the Bogota region agree with a topotypical series from the Popayan region, 

 and both series differ from Ecuador (Pichincha) birds in their smaller size, 

 shorter bill and greener, less brownish underparts.

(1357) Oxypogon stubeli Meyer. 



Oxypogon stvhelii Meyek, Zeit. Gtes. Orn., I, 1884, p. 204 (Tolima, Cen. Andes, 

 Col.). 



Of this rare species, heretofore known only from the type, a female, 

 Allen and Miller secured a pair on Santa Isabel (alt. 12,700 ft.) the type- 

 locaUty. The male bears a general resemblance to 0. guerini of the Eastern 

 Andes, which it evidently represents, but has the elongated feathers of the 

 crown more tawny, the underparts generally more rufescent, outer web 

 (except at the base), tip, shaft, and a narrow strip along the shaft on the inner 

 web of the outer tail-feather ochraceous-buff; an ochraceous-buff shaft- 

 streak on the remaining tail-feathers. The metallic throat-plumes are in 

 molt, but it is apparent that those of the chin would have been green, while 

 the longer plumes would have been orange-purple.
