(GREENISH TYRANT.)
+Muscicapara viridicata+, _d'Orb. Voy., Ois._ p. 325. +Elainea
grata+, _Cab. J. f. O._ 1883, p. 216 (Tucuman).
_Description._--Above dark olive-green; head dark cinereous,
slightly crested, with a large basal spot of bright yellow; lores
and eye-region mixed with whitish; wings and tail ashy black, with
slight margins of the same colour as the back; below pale cinereous;
belly, crissum, and under wing-coverts sulphur-yellow; bill
blackish; feet dark brown: whole length 5·0 inches, wing 2·5, tail
2·5. _Female_ similar.
_Hab._ South America.
The _Elainea grata_, based by Dr. Cabanis upon specimens obtained
by Herr Schulz in Tucuman, must, I think, be identical with Azara's
_Contramaestre pardo verdoso, corona amarilla_, upon which Vieillot
established his _Sylvia viridicata_. It is certainly, in my opinion,
the _Muscicapara viridicata_ of d'Orbigny.
Herr Schulz met with this species in the province of Tucuman, in the
month of December.
