 (1816) p. 183, though not accepting it. We cannot see how this name can be placed among 

 the synonyms of this species, as the bird is described as green above, while it has no green in 

 the plumage, and the locality is uncertain. On the other hand it appears quite safe to accept 

 the name lunulatus, and we do not know what reason induced Mr. Sclater to reject it.)

An adult male of the so-called Orinoco-make in Mns. H. v. B. has the wings and 

 tail shorter and the bill thicker and shorter. Specimens from Cnmana (Venezuela) 

 also have the wings and bill shorter in many cases, but not always. Freshly moulted 

 T/i. major albicri.isus show distinctly white edges to the remigos, but they are 

 narrower than in typical major, and the tail has always considerably less white.
