The Hon. Walter Rothschild and Dr. Hartert not only 

 have identified C. purpuratus, but have shown that the 

 habitat "Solomon Islands " was quite a mistake. 



The same ornithologists say they have before; them a large 

 series of this species from Konstantinhafen, Simbang, and 

 Stephausort, in Kaiser Wilhelnr's Land. They notice that 

 " the adult male has the breast red, the female and young 

 male green." They notice that the young bird has the cheeks 

 covered with shorter feathers of a yellowish colour with red 

 spots, the ear-coverts narrower and greenish yellow.
