Heleodytes nuchalis Allen, Bull. A. M. N. H., XIII, 1900, p. 180 (Cienaga). 



Occupies the semi-arid Coastal Zone and lower Magdalena Valley. I 

 can detect no racial difl'erence between the specimens hsted below, two from 

 Santa Marta (including the type of pardits Scl.) and one from Puerto 

 Cabello, Venezuela, to which I assume the name nuchalis (Cab.) is applica- 

 ble. The specimens from the lower Orinoco are smaller and possibly 

 represent brevirostris Lawr., which, if we may judge from the measurements 

 accompanying the original description, is a smaller bird than nuchalis.
