* As explained by Mr. Oates, his nomenclature of the Timeliidx was mainly 
taken from the seventh volume of the “Catalogue of Birds,” which was going 
through the press at the same time as his “ Handbook.” I am, therefore, respon- 
sible for the generic name Phyllobates, which I afterwards found to have been 
preoccupied, and which I changed to Phyllergates. — It. B. S.
