 on the more outer feathers ; primaries fuscous to dark clove brown, uni- 

 form on the inner webs and blotched with light ochraceous-bufif on the 

 outer ones; back, lower back, and rump between very pale tawny-olive 

 and isabelline, the feathers with a few subterminal flecks of black ; upper

 streaks varying in width; sides of neck, breast, sides, and anterior and 

 lateral part of abdomen tawny-olive to dark, bright clay color, the feathers 

 with white shafts, which enlarge subterminally to form conspicuous 

 rounded or tear-shaped marks narrowly edged with dusky to black, and 

 just failing to reach the tips of the feathers; flanks, thighs, lower ab- 

 domen, and under tail coverts less olive, duskier, without pale shafts or

 rufescent generally, the sepia areas above being Dresden brown to 

 cinnamon-brown ; the bulk of the occipital crest capucine orange instead 

 of orange-bufif, the freckling on the wings Sudan brown to raw umber,

Adult female (olive-brown phase). — Similar to the male of the same 

 phase but smaller and with the entire occipital crest dark mummy brown
