This is a class taken from the Atlas Ethnologique of Balbi, wherein we find a short specimen of the language or dialect of each nation enumerated as belonging to it.
Besides these, however, there is, in the same area, i.e. the parts about the watershed of the rivers Doce, Pardo Da Contas, &c., on one side, and that of the river San Francisco on the other.
THE COROPOS(?).
Locality.—Living along with the Coroados, on the river Xipoto.
Language.—Placed by Balbi with the Coroados, by Spix and Martius with the Macuani.
The discrepancy between the evidence of the two authors just named, explains the note of interrogation, and induces me to leave the Coropos as an unplaced tribe.
THE CHACRIABAS(?).
Original locality.—The river Preto, in Pernambuco.
Present locality.—In the district of Desemboque, in Goyaz.
Numbers in 1830, about 800.
