2. X. lamellipennis (Lafr.) : Sclater, Cat. A. B. p. 226, from the coast of North-eastern 

 Brazil, apparently intermediate in its range between the two other species. A specimen of this 

 bird, in the collection of Messrs. Salvin and Godman, was obtained by Natterer near Para, and 

 Mr. Wallace also collected examples in the vicinity of the same city. Prof. Burmeister indicates 

 " Columbia" as its habitat, without giving any authority for the same, and is no doubt mistaken 

 on this point. 



3. X. atropurpurea, from the wood-region of South-eastern Brazil. 



Our figures of the present bird are taken from specimens in Mr. Sclater's collection. 



Octobee, 1866.
