When examining the specimens of this bird contained in the magnificent 

 collection of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, I noticed 

 considerable differences between the Austrahan and New Guinea examples. 

 In the former, the pectoral patch seemed to be broader and terminated 

 below in a semi-circular form, in the latter to be much narrower and nearly 

 straight in its lower margin.
