club-shaped spots mount to the very summit of the occiput, being 

 there separated only about one inch from each other. They are 

 bordered behind by a sharp narrow black edging, distinctly de- 

 fined against the neighboring blue ; this black margin nearly meets 

 its fellow on the front of the neck, then passes down along the 

 edge of the blue on each side, widening as it descends beyond the 

 wing where it is finally dissipated.
