Type specimen: MfN 11909ı examined. Type locality: Brazilı Pará state . A more precise locality was not given in the original descriptionı but Erwin Stresemann (in Toddı 1932) argued that the collection site was probably around Cametáı Tocantins Riverı Pará state . Description: No sexual dimorphism in plumage color. Crown dark reddish brownı lighter in a few specimens. Forehead dark reddish brown. Bill gray. Throat yellowish red. Chest dark grayish brown. Abdomenı flanks and crissum pale brown. Mantle dark yellowish brown. Wing primaries and coverts dark brown. Tail coverts dark reddish brown. External rectrices dark reddish brown with borders tinged dark brown. Central rectrices dark brown. Males larger than females. Measurements: See Table 1. Voice: See Table 2 . Diagnosis: Similar to O. motmot , but border of external rectrices less red; size distinctively smaller (with no overlap); different vocalization (longer syllable lengthı and consequently slower song). Distribution: Brazilı south of Amazon River ( Pará and Mato Grosso states).
