each feather edged with white, and sometimes interspersed with 

 glittering red feathers. 



Younq males are like the female, the rosy-red feathers of the 

 throat gradually increase in number, and generally become fully 

 developed before the glittering feathers of the crown appear. 



Of the names given to this bird //. lonc/irostris applies to that of 

 Venezuela, Trinidad, and the whole of the Amazons region and 

 Guiana, //. steivarto' to that of Colombia, H. sdateri to that of 

 Costa Kica, and H. pallidiceiis to that of Mexico. The only one of 

 these that appears to have any substantial claims to recognition is 

 the last. The paler green, less blue crown are said to distinguish 

 it, and certainly the Mexican birds have this distinctive character 

 when compared with others of the typical Trinidad form. But the 

 transition between one and the other seems complete. 



Hah. Mexico, southwards to Colombia, Venezuela, Guiana, and 

 the Amazons Valley.
