(1529) Ramphastos cuvieri Wagl. 



Ramphastos cuvieri Wagl., Syst. Av. Rhamphast. 1827, p. 5 (" Brasilia versus 

 flumen Amazonum"). 



In six males the bill measures from 175 to 198 mm. On the ground of 

 their larger size, therefore, I refer our specimens to cuvieri, of which, how- 

 ever, I have no authentic specimens. Unfortunately the collector made 

 no notes on the color of the bill in the fresh specimen, but in three of these 

 five birds there is an indication of red about half an inch from the base of 

 the maxilla near the yellow culmen streak, suggesting therefore an approach 

 toward R. inca. The occurrence of this species at Barrigon brings it into 

 the same region in which we secured R. culminatus.

(1530) Ramphastos culminatus Goidd. (Plate XXXVIII.) 



Ramphastos culminatus Gotjld, P. Z. S., 1833, p. 70 ("Mexico"; Brabourne 

 and Chubb "designate Colombia"; 1 suggest adding Villavicencio). 



Four specimens from the eastern base of the Eastern Andes are evidently 

 to be referred to this species. Three of them have the " snow-white" breast 

 and -therefore agree with Gould's description, and one has a faint tinge of 

 yellow on the breast and therefore resembles his plate (Monog. Ramphast., 

 2d. ed.). A colored drawing of the bill made by Fuertes from a specimen 

 in the flesh agrees minutely with the figures in Gould's plate {I. c).

(1531) Ramphastos citreolsemus Goidd. (Plate XXXVIII.) 



Ramphastos citreolcemus Gould, P. Z. S., 1843, p. 147 (Bogotd); Wtatt, Ibis, 

 1879, p. 379 (San Nicolas); Sol. & Salv., P. Z. S., 1879, p. 537 (Medellin, Remedies); 

 Robinson, Flying Trip, p. 157 (R. Magdalena). 



This species appears to be restricted to the humid Tropical Zone of the 

 Magdalena and lower Cauca Valleys.
