also sent to Berlin by Dr. v. Frantzius. In Mr. Lawrence’s Catalogue o f Costa-Rican birds
it is stated that the Smithsonian Institution possesses skins o f this species obtained at Angostura
and Frailes b y the Messrs. Carmiol, and h y Mr. J. Cooper at Navarro. Mr. Julian Carmiol
has also forwarded to Messrs. Salvin and Godman a single skin o f a male o f this Parrot from
Angostura. From this individual our figure has been taken. A s far as we know, this is the
only specimen o f Conunis liofmanni in this country, but we learn from Dr. Finsch’s recently
published work that examples o f it have been lately acquired by the Leyden Museum.
