This specimen is practically iJeutical with one of Pelzeln's types iu the 

 British Museum collection. The stiff frontal plumes aud a narrow, hot distinct, 

 superciliary streak are black; the top of the head and the hindueck dark lirown 

 with a slight rufescent tinge, the feathers of the forehead, vertex, and sides of 

 the crown beiug distinctly edged with white laterally ; malar region and ear-coverts 

 dark brown ; foreneck very dark chestnnt-brown ; breast and abdomen clear 

 chestnut, the feathers of the foreneck and breast with broad lateral edges of white. 

 The mantle is decidedly bronze-green, the fesithers of the upper back as well as the 

 lesser and median upper wing-coverts are broadly margined with white on each 

 side, while those of the greater series have but a very narrow, rufescent white edge 

 along the outer web. There is no wattle on the throat. This species has never 

 been met with again since Natterer's time. The present specimen extends it» 

 range considerably to the east.

The series fully bears out what I said in the revision of Spix' ty])es (p. 703) 

 about the distinguishing characters of this form. 



A specimen from the Rio Jordao, N.W. Minas Geraes (A. Robert coll. — Mus. 

 Tring), is in every respect similar.
