In all our specimens there is more or less blue mixed with the black of the median 
frontal band, though in some cases it is only just perceptible. In three speci- 
mens, moreover, from Nepaul, collected by Brian Hodgson, the blue on the throat 
and cheeks is more intense, and the whole of the underparts are suffused with a 
very decided wash of verditer blue.
