probably reached through the Tuis Valley, by way of Turrialba and 

 Angostura, and about fifteen miles southeast of the Reventazon River. 

 There is a tributary of the Pacuare River, designated on some maps as 

 Rio Moravia, which is very likely the place in question. 



Ahirdnjo : — This place must not be confused with Naranjo de Car- 

 tago (Juan Vinas), for it is in quite a different locality, being on the 

 Pacific slope of the plateau region nearly midway between Grecia and 

 San Ramon, and about eighteen miles northwest of Alajuela, and at an 

 elevation of about 3,000 to 4,000 feet. 



Naranjo (Rio) : — A large river to the south of the Rio Grande de 

 Pirris, about midway between that stream and the mouth of the Rio 

 Grande de Terraba. It rises in the rain-soaked heights of the Cerro 

 de la Muerte. Mr. Cherrie is the only collector who has been in this 

 region, and any birds bearing that locality or Pozo del Pital may 

 safely be accredited to him. 



Nava?-ro : — A small river and village, the former rising in the Las 

 Cruces Mountains, and flowing northeast into the Agua Caliente, 

 thence into the Reventazon. The name appears on skins of both 

 Boucard and Cooper. It is on the Caribbean slope at an altitude of 

 probably 2,500 to 3,000 feet. 



Nicoya : — Name applied to the large gulf on the western coast of 

 Costa Rica, as well as to the peninsula opposite it. The term Nicoya 

 on a label is very indefinite, although probably most skins so labelled 

 came from the valley of the Tempisque River, at some point. 



Ochomogo : — (See Alto de Ochomogo. ) 



Old Harbor : — On the Caribbean coast, about twenty-eight miles 

 southeast of Port Limon. It has a small port inside a coral-reef, but 

 only suitable for very small craft. It is the point of entry for the 

 whole of the Talamanca region. Prof. Gabb collected there. 



Orosi : — On the Reventazon River, very near to Cachi and Navarro. 

 Reached from Paraiso or from Agua Caliente. Boucard, Cooper, and 

 Underwood collected there, possibly Zeledon and Carmiol also. 



Pacaca : — About sixteen miles southwest of San Jose, on the road 

 passing through Escazu. It is at the foot of the Cerros del Puriscal, 

 and at an altitude of approximately 2,000 feet. 



Pacuare : — A large river rising in the Chirripo Mountains and flow- 

 ing northeast, nearly parallel to the Reventazon, to the Caribbean Sea. 

 It is uncertain to just what point on its course the name, as used by 

 collectors, refers ; but it must be some place almost as far down as the
