Adult male. Resembles C. rubiginosus, but differs iu having the 

 whole of the rump and upper tail-coverts golden yellow barred with 

 dusky olive ; the size is also larger. The present species resembles 

 C. yucaianensis in having the rump and upper tail-coverts barred, but 

 in the former the ground-colour is yellow. It differs, however, in 

 having the chin and throat deep black clearly spotted (not striped) 

 with white. C. gularis has the back, scapulars, and wing-coverts 

 very rusty iu colour ; the forehead, crown, occiput, nape, and malar 

 stripe crimson, this colour even spreading on to the feathers of 

 the hind neck ; the lateral tail-feathers have faint dusky bars. 

 Total leugth 9*5 inches, culmen 1-15, wing 4-9, tail 3-1, tarsus 

 0*85 ; toes (without claws) — outer anterior 0-75, outer posterior 0-7, 

 inner anterior 0-53, inner posterior 0-35. 



Adult female. Differs from the adult male in having the malar 

 region black spotted with diiU yellowish white. Total length 

 9-3 inches, culmen 1-08, wing 5-2, tail 3-2, tarsus 0-9. 



Immature female. Has the malar region and behind it, together 

 with the chin and throat, uniform black ; the feathers of the fore- 

 head and crown, as well as those of the occiput and nape, are 

 tipped with red ; the car-coverts are of a more smoky olivaceous 

 colour than in the adult, which it otherwise resembles.
