Cassin (1860) reported one specimen as "Galbula ruficauda, Cuvier" from the Rio Nercua, a headwater of the Rio Truandö. I collected G. r. me- lanogenia along the Rio Truandö and also along the upper Rio Salaqui, north of the Nercua river. Judging from these records it seems likely that Cassin's specimen ("in bad condition") actually belonged to G. r. melanogenia. The Rufous-tailed Jacamar is a common bird along forest streams and enters even fairly open areas in northern Colombia and Venezuela, where it may be found in light second growth and dry thickets. I collected 2 6. Fig. 36: Distribution of the Great Jacamar, Jacamerops aurea. Explanation: a J. a. penardi; b J. a. isidori; c J. a. aurea; d J. a. ridgwayi.
