51. Cyclorhis flaviventris, Lafr. Rev. Zool. 1842, p. 133. 
Transmitted by Senor Constancia and Mr. Skinner. 
Fam. VIII. HIRUNDINIDiE. 
52. Hirundo horreorum, Barton; Baird,Rep. p.308.(N. A.) 
This species, or one very closely resembling it, was observed 
by Salvin near Duenas, in April 1858, 
53. Petrochelidon bicolor (Vieill.). (N. A.) 
Transmitted by Mr. Skinner. In Mr. Gould's collection. 
54. Petrochelidon thalassina, Sw. Phil.Mag.1827,p.365. 
(N.A.) _ 
Early in March great numbers of this beautiful species occur 
near Duenas, where they remain but for a short time; during 
that time they are to be found flying over the open land to the 
south of the lake. 
55. Atticora pileata, Gould, P. Z. S. 1858, p. 355. 
Transmitted by Mr. Skinner. 
56. Cotyle serripennis (Aud.). (N.A.) 
In a gorge on the River Guacalate this Swallow is especially 
abundant, but it is also found elsewhere about Duenas. Greater 
numbers appear in the winter months, but a few are to be found 
all through the year. 
57. Progne dominicensis (Gm.). 
A skin, transmitted by Mr. Skinner, seems to agree most 
nearly with this species. 
Fam. IX. AMPELIDiE. 
Subfam. Ampelin^e. 
58. Ampelis cedrorum, Vieill. (N. A.) 
Transmitted by Mr. Skinner, and said to be an occasionally 
abundant winter visitant. Bomhycilla marice , Coinde (Grenoble, 
1857), seems to be nothing more than this bird. 
Subfam. Ptilogonydin.e. 
59. Ptilogonys cinereus (Sw.). 
Transmitted by Senor Constancia to the late Mr. Strickland; 
and also in Mr. Skinner's series.
