The species belong to the families TrogonidcBj Formicariidce^ JDendroco-

This contains a list of species not included in the papers 
published by the author and Mr. Sclater in former volumes of 
^ The Ibis,^ together with a series of corrections; both as to 
nomenclature and distribution. Six hundred and twelve spe- 
cies, of which eighty-one are added in the present paper, are 
now known from the district included in the limits originally 
laid down by these two accomplished naturalists (Ibis, 1859, 
p. 1) ; and Mr. Salvin enters into a few particulars ofthe various 
journeys of exploration made by himself, his collectors, or friends. 
The corrections chiefly refer to the papers contained in ^ The 
Ibis^ for 1859 and 1860. CharrKBOSjnza torquata, Scl. & Salv. 
(Ibis, 1860, p. 274), is Pyrgisoma leiicote,
