Capito Vieill* 
Bill long, broad at the base, with the sides suddenly compressed, and the culmen arched towards the 
tij) ; the gonys long and advancing upwards ; the nostrils basal, lateral, and rounded ; the base of the 
upper mandible furnished Avith a few short bristles. Wings moderate and pointed, with the fourth, 
fifth, and sixth quills equal and longest. Tail long and rounded. Tarsi as long as, or longer than, 
the anterior outer toe, and covered vdth. broad scales. Toes unequal, the outer pair the longest 
and equal, the mner pair short and unequal ; the claws moderate, compressed, and curved. 
The tropical regions of South America are the localities for most of the species ; but some are found in various parts 
of Africa. Their manners and habits are supposed to be the same as those of the last genus ; but they have not liitherto 
been recorded by travellers.

PsiLOPOGON Miill.-\ 
Bill large, broad at the base, with the sides suddenly compressed, and the culmen arched towards the 
tip, which is acute ; the nostrils basal, lateral, and hidden by the projecting bristles that cover the base 
of the culmen. Wings moderate, with the fourth to the sixth quills the longest. Tail long and much 
rounded. Tarsi as lono- as the outer anterior toe, and covered in front with broad scales. Toes Ions., 
the anterior outer toe longer than the posterior outer one ; the claws moderate, compressed, and 
curved. 
* Vieillot established this genus in I8I6 (Analyse, p. 27.). Kyctades of M. Ginger (1827) and Micropogon of JL Temminck (182?) 
are synonymous. It includes Ranziiii's genus Trachyphonus {1823), with which CucupiCM,? of M. Lesson (1831), Polysticte of Dr. A. 
Smith (^1835), and Promepicus of Baron Lafresnaye are synonymous. 
t It was in 1835 that M. Miiller proposed this division.
