PHEUGOPEDIUS **) nov. gen.  Coraya.   450. 1. P. genibarbis Nob.***) Sphenura coraya Licht. (nec Buff. Gm.) Doubl. p. 42. No. 464. — Myiothera coraya Spix. Av. Bras. I. tab. 73. fig. 2.   ...  **) Von φευγω, flüchten; πεδιον offenes Land.  In der Schnabelbildung der Gattung Cyphorhinus am nächsten, aber mit weniger zusammengedrücktem an der Basis breiterem, an der Spitze stärker gebogenem Schnabel mit weniger runden Nasenlöchern; Flügel und Schwanz stärker entwickelt.    ***)Wir halten den in Brasilien vorkommenden Vogel von dem Coraya des Buffon P. coraya Nob. Turdus coraya G. Lath. verschieden. Letzterer scheint vorzüglich nur in Cayenne und Guiana vorzukommen, ist kleiner als der brasilische und lebhafter gefärbt. Der brasilische Vogel ist in allen Körperverhältnissen grösser.  Das Rothbraune des Rückens und der Flügeldecken ist heller." (Cabanis 1853); "Pheugopedius Cabanis, Mus.
