Adult. Very similar to S. bassana, and, as in that species, the naked 

 band down the middle of the throat is short, extending for about 

 two inches only. It may, however, be at once distinguished by 

 having the two middle pairs of tail-feathers dark brownish black. 

 Tail composed of 12 feathers. Iris olive-white ; bill brownish 

 horu-colour, slightly tinged with blue ; space round the eye leaden- 

 blue ; bare skin at the base of the bill and down to the middle of 

 the throat nearly black ; front of tarsi and toes sickly greenish 

 yellow ; webs brown. Total length about 36 inches, culmcn from 

 feathers on forehead 3-4-3-6, wing 18, tail 8-84, tarsus 2-2.
