Similar to M. bicolor, but all the quills, including the tertiaries, 

 slate-grey, with black margins ; basal under tail-coverts only, 

 feathers of the vent, and some feathers of the flanks, covering the 

 thighs, with large black spots ; tail as in M. bicolor and M. spilor- 

 rhoa, viz.. with the black decreasing towards the outer feathers, 

 and the outer ones only black at the tip and on the edge of the 

 outer web. 



This species differs from all its allies by all the quills being 

 slate-grey and by the mealy grey colour almost concealing the black 

 of the wings.
