List of Costa Rican Birds. 



Family TINAMID^E. 



1. Tinamus robustus robustus Sclater. 



Tinamus robustus Sclater, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. , i860, 253 (Mexico, Orizaba, 

 [Salle]). — Lawrence, Ann. Lye. N. Y., IX, 1868, 140, part. (San Carlos 

 [J. Carmiol]). — Sclater and Salvin, Exotic Ornith., Plate XLIV. 



Carnegie Museum: Cuabre, rj (Carriker). One skin. 



Twelve skins of Tinamus robustus were examined, from various 

 localities ranging from the Sicsola River to the Nicaraguan boundary, 

 and but one of these was found referable to true T. robustus, and agree- 

 ing with specimens from Honduras, British Honduras, and Mexico. 

 It seems very probable, in view of these conditions, that practically 

 all Costa Rican birds must be referred to the southern race, T. robustus 

 fuscipennis. For notes on habits, etc., see No. 2. 



2. Tinamus robustus fuscipennis (Salvadori). 



Tinamus fuscipennis Salvadori, Cat. Birds Brit. Mus., XXVII, 1895, 500 

 (Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Veragua). — Salvin and Godman, Biol. Centr.- 

 Am., Aves, III, 450 (Jimenez and Miravalles [Underwood in Iitt.~\). 



Tinamus robustus Underwood, Ibis, 1896, 449 (Miravalles). — Lawrence,
