This new form of W'oodhewer was first obser\ed at Ouiribana 
de Caicara, where two specimens were taken in April, 1898: but it 
was rarely seen until beyond the falls of Atures, beyond which point 
it was abundant. In habits it did not seem to differ from its con- 
geners, being strictly a bird of the thick forest. Specimens were 
collected at Ouiribana de Caicara, Bichaco, Perico, Maipures and 
Munduapo, also one is included by Berlepsch and Hartert from Suapure 
on the Caura River. 
In the American IMuseum collection are two specimens taken by 
Klages on the Caura River: a male at Maripa. January 24th and a 
female at La Union, September 26th.
