Adult male. Upper surface greenish black, darker on the middle

 and nape silvery purple or greenish ; whole throat glittering green ; 

 rest of the under surface black, the Hanks washed with dark purple ; 

 under tail-coverts chestnut ; tail coppery red, edged with dark 

 purple ; bill black. Total length about 4-5 inches, wing 2*5, tail 1-4, 

 bill -95. 



Ft'male. Unknown. 



Graf H. v. Berlepsch has a specimen of this bird received direct 

 from Bahia. 



The position of this bird in Lampornis is questionable, as the 

 feathers of the forehead are carried further along the bill and over 

 the nasal coverings than in any of the more typical members of that 

 genus. It has, however, the serrate maxilla of Lampornis, and the 

 colour of the tail is a corroborative character.
