APPENDIX. 



Gazeteer of Colombian Collecting Stations. 



For convenience of reference and to aid in finding stations on the map, 

 I append an alphabetical list, with position number in parenthesis, of all 

 the localities at which, so far as I can learn, birds have been collected in 

 Colombia, together with their approximate latitude, longitude and altitude 

 and a brief statement of their more significant features. The position 

 of the better-known localities is taken from standard sources. The lati- 

 tude and longitude of our camps or collecting stations at wayside posadas, 

 were not determined by us and are here given on the basis of the distance 

 of these stations from localities the position of which has been ascertained, 

 mainly with the object of facilitating reference to them on the map. The 

 altitude for most of our own stations was determined by the aneroid 

 barometer, and although we used only standard instruments, we often had 

 convincing evidence of their inaccuracy. In connection with those localities 

 visited by our own expeditions, I give the dates at which collections were 

 made and the number of specimens secured. 



Aguadita. — (Alt. 6500 ft.) A posada on the Bogot^-Fusugasugd. trail, below El 

 Roble and with similar surroundings. Below this point the forest has been 

 cleared and the land is largely under cultivation. (No. 75.)

 Almaguer. — (Lat. 1° 64', long. 77°; alt. 7500 ft.) Our camp here was situated 

 in luxuriant Temperate Zone forest in the Central Andes south of Popayan
