 size, and has the upper tail-coverts, in the adult, generally tinged

 part. The dimensions of the present species are also less than 

 those of D. oleaginus. Total length 6 inches, culmen 0-87, wing 

 3"53, tail 2, tarsus 0"75 ; toes (without claws)- — outer anterior 0-48,

 brown, but is in other respects like the adult male. Total length
