Mixed Diglossisi, July 25, 1965, IV (56)

[[margin]] Albi Brun [[/margin]] V. As far as my observations go, they suggest that Albis and Bruns are segregated microgeographically here.

[[margin]] Gen [[/margin]] VI The Dilossisi here are really quite surprisingly different from the Diglossisi of the southern part of the Western Cordillera. In the final write-up of the dilossisi variations, it will be necessary to [[underline]] distinguish between two "regions" [[/underline]]: the northern part of the Western Cordillera and the southern part of the same cordillera.

[[margin]] Gen [[/margin]] VII Nevertheless, the behavior and distribution of the birds here would seem to support my general hypothesis that the amount of contact between species is directly correclated with the size of the region in which they occur. This region is larger than Munchique, and the local species are less segregated than the species of Munchique. But this region is smaller than the Eastern Cordillera, and the local species are more segregated than in the Eastern Cordillera.

[[margin]] Setti WCC [[/margin]] VIII Note that there are minor anomalies when different species are compared in detail. This, for instance, Settis and WCC's seem to be [[underline]] more [[/underline]] strongly segregated here than on Munchique.

IX I do not have enough information (yet) to compare the behavior of species of different areas [[underline]] within [[/underline]] this region.
