Buthraupis rothschildi Behl., Bull. B. 0. C, VII, 1897, p. 3 (Cachabi, n. w. 

 Ecuador). 



An adult male of this rare species was collected on the Rio Andagueda 

 in the Tropical Zone, by Mrs Kerr, thus extending its known range from 

 northwest Ecuador. While therefore occurring in the same latitude with 

 B. melanochlamys that species appears to be restricted to the Subtropical 

 Zone while rothschildi occupies the lower or Tropical Zone.

Two females and a male collected by Miller and Boyle at La Frijolera 

 at the lower border of the Subtropical Zone in the Western Andes, agree 

 with Hellmayr^s description of this species previously known only from the 

 type.
