 colour : gizzard contained small seeds. 



95. Pionus corallinus, Bp. Rev. Zool. 1854, p. 148. 



One ex. "Irides hazel ; bill red." This is the northern representa- 

 tive of Pionus maximiliani (Siy, Azara, no. 286) of Paraguay and 

 Bolivia, and a very close ally. The Pionus corallinus, spoken of by 

 Mr. Cassin in Page's f Narrative of the U.S. La Plata Expedition ' 

 (New York, 1859), p. 601, is doubtless Azara's species.
