Adult male. Very similar to that of H. darissce on the upper 

 surface, the green of the rump a little more golden ; the frontal spot 

 larger ; the pectoral baud is buff instead of white and is followed 

 below by shining green, not glittering green ; in the latter respect 

 this species resembles H. laticlavius. 



The female has the fore part of the crown rather bright shining 

 green ; the pectoral band is buff as in the male ; the throat is dusky 

 black, each feather with a wide rusty edge. 



Young males are like the females, and gradually replace the throat- 

 feathers of that sex with the glittering ones of the adult.
