The malar spots in the male are produced into an elongate 

 vitta on each side of the neck. The throat in both sexes is di- 

 vided from the breast by a black band, which is terminated pos- 

 teriorly with blue in the male and with dusky-grey in the female. 

 The upper part of the head of the female is nearly of the colour 

 of the back, and the lateral vittse are testaceous chesnut. The 

 white band on the wing-coverts is formed by a separate oblique 

 band on each feather. The colour of the back and abdomen is 

 more intense in the male than in the female.
