Thegeneral colour of the under surface is of the richest j^oldengreen ; the under wings being crossed by a broad bar of deepmaroon, softened into pearly white. The female is knownby being the largest, and by having the black margin of theupper wings much broader. Our specimens were capturedin Brazil. Lat 8. 12. S. The palpi, which in the sub-genus Areas are equally longand perfect in both sexes, are very diflerent in the male andfemale of the present sub-genus. In other respects thereseems to be a close affinity between them. We have nothad time, however, to enter upon their minute dissection. o 85.

While the latter roam about and seek theirfood in all situations, the Jays confine themselves to thickAvoods, feeding upon fruits, insects, and eggs, and seldomperch upon the ground. In unison with that symbolicalsystem which pervades all nature, we find a perl^(;t re-presentation of this group in the Bush-Shrikes of the newworld. America seems to possess three Jays, closely resemblingeach other, but each (if they have been described correctly)having some peculiar distinction. As these have not beenclearly stated, and
