Messrs. Salvin and Sclater on the 
11. Dendrceca superciliosa (Boclcl.) : Baird, llep. p. 289. 
Duenas, September 1859. I obtained but two specimens of 
this species, which does not appear to be common. 
12. Basileuterus brasieri (Giraud) : Sclater, P. Z. S. 
1856, p. 292. 
1 have only observed this species in the A oleano. It lias 
many of the habits of a Setophaga, the characters of which genus 
I have had more frequent opportunities of watching in the species 
S. flammea and S. picta than in the better known S. ruticilla. 
Like the rest of the Mniotiltida ?, they are restless in the pursuit 
of food, thoroughly searching every twig and leaf, even the 
bark of the main stem, for insects of every kind that may there 
lie hidden. . 
13. Basileuterus delattrii (Bp.): Sclater, P. Z.S. 1860 
(May 8th). 
Duenas, Two specimens only were obtained of this species, 
as distinguished (/. c.) from its near allies, B. rufifrons of Mexico 
and B. rnesochrysus of New Granada. 
14. Euthlypis lacrymosa (Cab.): Mus. Hein. p. 19. 
Alotenango, September 1859. Much nearer a Setophaga in 
its habits than anything else. Most of the Setophagce may at 
once be recognized by the curious way they have of keeping the 
tail expanded and swaying it from side to side. 
15. VlREO NOVEBORACENSIS (Gm.). 
Coban, November 1859. Only one example, agreeing with 
N. American specimens. 
16. Chamjeospiza torquata (Du Bus) : Sclater, P. Z. S. 
1858, p. 304. 
Volcan de Euego, September 1859. This bird I have only 
found in the Volcano. It skulks about the thick underwood, 
and scratches among the dead leaves for its food. 
17. Buarremon albinuchus (d'Orb. & Lafr.): Sclater, Syn. 
Av. Tan. p. 24. 
Coban, November 1859. A very shy bird. 
18. Eucometis spodocephala (Bp.) : Chlorospingus spodo - 
crphalus } Bp. Notes Orn. p. 23.
