Adult male. Differs from the males of T. melamirus and macrurus 

 in having no white pectoral band, the vermicnlations on the wing- 

 coverts finer, the upper parts with green and bronze, but only 

 slight blue reflexions, and the middle tail-feathers with compara- 

 tively di\Y\ bronze and green reflexions and diffuse black terminal 

 bands. The size, too, is greater *. Total length 13'5 inches, wing 

 7"2, tail 7'1, tarsus 0-65. 



The young of both sexes differ as described in 7'. melanurus. 



Adult female. Hesembles that of T. macrurus, which it usually 

 exceeds considerably in size. Total length 12'7 inches, wing 7*2, 

 tail 7, tarsus 0*65.

* It must be added that where the ranges of T. -macrurus and the present 

 .species (i. e. at the Panama Railway, where both occur) approach they inter- 

 grade in size, and the latter becoming smaller, many haying a wing-measurement 

 of only 6'7, are only to be distinguished from T. macrnrus by the absence of 

 the white pectoral band in the male ; the females cannot be distinguished 

 with certainty.
