Above brown ; lores whitish ; concealed vertical crest red or 

 yellow; wings blackish, two bands across the coverts and outer 

 margins of external secondaries pale rufous or fulvous, sometimes 

 whitish ; tail dark brown : beneath fulvous white : sides of throat, 

 breast, and flanks more or less distinctly nanimulated with brown ; 

 under wing-coverts pale fulvous ; bill brown, lower mandible 

 whitish ; feet blackish : whole length 4-7 inches, wing 2-5, tail 2 - 3. 

 Female similar, but concealed crest yellow or absent. 



Hub. Yeragua and South America down to Argentine Republic. 



The colour of the crest in this species seems to vary from red to 

 yellow ; it is not quite evident from marked specimens that this is 

 sexual, but such is, I suspect, the case.
