Having compared these examples from Paraguay with a 
series of eleven others from Brazil, I have come to the 
conclusion that the Paraguayan bird is paler above, and the 
chestnut tail not so intense in colour, while the under surface 
presents a whiter appearance. I would suggest, therefore, 
that it be regarded as a subspecies under the name of 
Automolus leucophthahnus bergianus.
