So far as my material goes, therefore, it gives no reason for the recognition 

 of a Bogota form. A female from La Frijolera, on the western slope of the 

 Central Andes, near the northern limit of the range, is decidedly greener, less 

 bronzy than others from La Candela. The culmen measm-es 22 mm.
