the same name as the village, and about twenty miles inland from the 

 mouth of the Tempisque. Practically all the collecting done at this 

 point was by Underwood in 1908. Conditions are practically the 

 same as at Bebedero and Bagaces. 



Bonilla : — A station on the railway from Limon to San Jose and 

 fifty-two and one-half miles from the latter point. It is close beside 

 the Reventazon River and at an altitude of about 1,000 to 1,200 feet. 

 The fauna is practically that of the Caribbean lowlands, although many 

 of the foot-hill forms are taken there. Almost all of the collecting 

 done there was carried on by Messrs. Ridgway and Zeledon in 1905 

 and 1908 and by Basulto in 1908. It has a very rich bird-fauna, con- 

 ditions being very favorable by reason of the heavy forest having been 

 removed over a considerable area and replaced by pastures, in which 

 many trees have been left scattered about. 



Boruca : — An Indian village of about three hundred to four hun- 

 dred inhabitants, situated in a small bowl-shaped valley in the hills on 

 the north side of the Rio Grande de Terraba, and having an altitude 

 of about 1,500 feet. The surrounding country is very broken and 

 interspersed with woodland and savanna. The first collecting done in 

 this region was by Cherrie in 189 1-2, the next by Underwood in 

 1906, by myself in 1907, and again by Underwood in 1908, on which 

 trip, however, he worked only at Buenos Aires and El General, farther 

 up the valley. 



Biienavista .- — Situated on the San Carlos River at a point about 

 midway between the headwaters of that river and the point known as 

 La Muelle de San Carlos. Castro and Fernandez made a trip here for 

 the Museo Nacional de Costa Rica, during the time Mr. Cherrie was 

 in that country (probably in 1892 or 1893), at which time the type of 

 Buthraupis c cemleigu la ris was secured, together with other rare species. 



Buenos Aires (de Terraba): — A thriving village of Costa Ricans 

 and Chiriquanos situated in the valley of the Rio Grande de Terraba, 

 on the Rio Ceibo about three miles above its junction with the Rio 

 Grande. It has an elevation of only 1,000 feet and is quite hot. 

 There are extensive savannas, surrounded and interspersed with wood- 

 land, and birds are abundant, especially along the Rio Ceibo. It is 

 about twenty-five miles from Boruca. Collecting done there by 

 Cherrie, Underwood, and myself. 



Cabagra : — An Indian village on the lower slopes of the Volcan 

 Pico Blanco, to the east of Terraba. Conditions much the same as at
