(2679) Mecocer cuius stictopterus (ScL). 

 Elainia stictoptera Scl., P. Z. S., 1858, p. 554, pi. 146, fig. 2 (Matos, &c.). 



Inhabits the Temperate Zone of all three ranges. I have seen no speci- 

 mens from Ecuador. An old 'Bogota' skin is somewhat browner than 

 freshly collected ones.

 Ecuador). 



Found in small numbers in the upper part of the Subtropical Zone of 

 all three ranges. Our eight specimens show some seasonal variation in 

 the color of the wing-coverts which vary from whitish to buff but on the 

 whole agree with two birds from Gualea, Ecuador, which doubtless typi- 

 cally represent the species.
