Mr. C. Chubb on the Birds of Paraguay. 
I agree with Mr. Oberholser in making this form a sub¬ 
species of P.fuscus (Vieill.). P. koeniswaldianus Bertoni can 
only be regarded as a synonym of the present species, as 
suggested by Dr. Ihering.

These examples belong to the Brazilian form with the deep 
chestnut-coloured wings and tail. I can only regard 
D. tarefero of Bertoni as quite inseparable from this 
species.
