supposed difiPerftnce in the coloration of the soft parts is due to the former 

 species having been described from specimens in which the colour had faded 

 after death, as in dried skins of C. caruiiculata the wattles are alwaj's yellow. 

 The fact that the females of these two supposed species are also identical in 

 plumage is additional evidence in favour of considering them to be one and the 

 same. 



* This specimen is probably not referable to this species — the whole bill in 

 the living bird being black, the naked skin round the eye dark bluish black, and 

 the legs red ; see Sclater, Trans. Z. S. x. p. 644 (1879)!
