in perfect plumage ; the upper parts are intimately mingled black 

 and blue, but the latter gives the general impression ; the black 

 of the throat is short, and ends abruptly with a broad cordiform 

 outline below; the forepart and sides of the neck appear to have 

 been yellower than they are now, but the club-shaped upper ter- 

 mination of this colored area is still very yellow ; in the whitish 

 of the sides of the neck stands an isolated black stripe, running 

 upward from the shoulder, stopping abruptly, not reaching the 

 gular black. The wings are entirely white beneath. The under 

 mandible is still richly colored posteriorly ; the rest of the bill, 

 and the whole feet and nails, are black.
