FLYCATCHER. 263 



Inhabits Brazil ; the Portuguese give it the name of Sebastian : 

 it has a singular, loud whistle, composed of five or six piercing notes ' 

 found in flocks, and as soon as one begins, the others immediately 

 join in chorus; called, in the Zoological JMuseum, Muscicapa am- 

 pelina.

Muscicapa rufigastra, Lin. Trans, xiii. p. 312. 3. 



DARK blue above, passing into black on the wings and sides 

 of the head; under parts ferruginous; bill and legs nearly black. 



177— BROAD-BILLED FLYCATCHER. 



Muscicapa latirostris, Lin. Trans, xiii. p. 312. 4. 



IS remarkable for the extreme breadth of its bill. It is a very 

 small bird, less than five inches in breadth, of a light brown above, 

 and whitish beneath. 



These two last birds are mentioned thus briefly by Sir T. S. 

 Raffles, as inhabiting the Island of Java ; and may probably be 

 referred to our Boat-billed Tody. See Vol. iii. p. 97.
