It is possible tliat this mny be an cxtraneoua featuro, as it has somewhat the appearance of a stain, and is not luentioiied by Sclater. The chin and throat are rather more yellow- ish. There is, as far as I can see, no specific difference between this specimen and the others, the yellow of under parts, if anything, being there the deepest. The original description and figure, from an Ecuador (Pallatanga) series, represent the under parts as much whiter than in the present specimens, and it is barely possible that two species may be involved. This species is markedly different from any other, and scarcely needs comparison. The proportions of quills are quite peculiar, and the brown cap, with the olive back is decidedly unique. In general form it constitutes a transition from V. gilva to V. noveboracensis. '-3 t.^.^^%tj<*i .â¢'. *.J Lanivireo, Baird.
