Taugava eveque, femelle, Desm. Tang. pi. 16. 



Olive-green, lighter on the head and darker on the back ; wings 

 and tail brownish black : wing-coverts edged with olive like the 

 back ; bastard wing, reraiges, and rectrices more or less margined 

 with darker olive ; under wing-coverts pale olive ; under surface 

 of wing-feathers towards their bases creamy white: bill dark horn- 

 colour ; feet brown : whole length 7"5 inches, wing 3-8, tail 3. 

 Female similar, but rather smaller. 



Bah. From 8. Brazil and Bolivia northwards to Trinidad, Vene- 

 zuela, Colombia, Panama, and Costa ilica. 



The western form {T. nwlanojdira) is hardly distinguishable 

 as a species, as there are many intermediate grades ; but in general 

 there are no olive-green edgings to the wing- and tail-feathers in 

 western specimens. In Guiauan skins these edgings are slightly 

 manifest.
