 broad longitudinal band running down the fore neck. 



Obs. Many adult specimens from Labuan, Java, and Lombock have 

 some of the chest- feathers tipped with maroon, or washed with 

 dusky black, thus indicating the close relationship to the collared 

 species, and at the same time proving the insignificance of such 

 differences in coloration.
