200 Mr. V1cons's and Dr. Honsrrgrp's Description of the 
siderable breadth, which mark the upper parts ; by white dots - 
or bands at or near the extreme points of the plumes of the 
head, forehead, neck, back, and adjoining parts of the wings ; 
by a decided admixture. of tawny among its colours; and by 
two strongly-marked fulvous bands, which cross the coverts of 
the wings. On the underside the transverse bands of the plumes 
meeting the longitudinal streaks along the shafts at right angles, 
afford a somewhat regularly chequered marking, which appears 
peculiar to this latter bird.
