This species is dark green like G. rhodops, but it is much smaller ; 

 the blue under wing-coverts and axillaries are a little lighter, but 

 darker than in G. personatus, which species it resembles in size. 

 Total length 9-5 inches, wing 6, tail 2-8 to 3, bill 0-82, tarsus 0-6. 



The ai/ti/t male has the head very mucb like the other allied 

 species; I have not seen an adult female; an apparently immature 

 male has the wholo head of a cinnamon colour, with lilac reflexions 

 on the upper part. 



The yoimg bird has the upper part of the head green like the 

 back ; the cheeks and sides of the head dull green ; the brown spot 

 on the smaller wing-coverts slightly indicated.

The types of this form, or species, are in tbe collection of the 

 Hon. Walter Rothschild ; the difference in size is not great, but 

 apparently constant. The female examined is not fully adult, having 

 many green feathers on tbe pileum among tbe brown ones.
