‘This species is very closely allied to C. ma/accense and C. miniatum, and ought to 
be placed between both mentioned species in the system. From C. ma/accense it 
is at once distinguished by the much longer occipital crest, which is obviously 
more lively red, the red colour occupying the feathers nearly down to the base. 
The mantle is very strongly varied with lively red, while there are at the best 
some few dull red markings on the mantle of C. malaccense. _The whole back and 
rump are much more lively yellow than in C. malaccense. In these peculiarities 
our species agrees very much with C. miniatum from Java, to which it is, in fact, 
more closely allied than to C. malaccense, but its red occipital crest is somewhat 
darker than in C. miniatum, and not fully as long, while the yellow nuchal 
feathers are longer in the Nias birds, reaching beyond the red occipital 
feathers. The red on the mantle is, as a rule, less richly extended over the 
mantle than in C. miniatum, though in our single male the whole mantle 
is almost entirely glossy red, much more so than in some of our Javan 
specimens. These differences and affinities are the same in the males as well as 
- in thefemales. In size the Nias birds do not differ from the two allied species.

** Adult male. Most nearly allied to C. pierii, but differs from that and other allied 
species in having the primaries coarsely barred with chestnut and black to the 
extremity ; the chin is, moreover, rufous streaked with black, and only the malar 
region is white with a faint yellowish tinge” (Styan). Habitat. Ching Ting,

‘‘ Bears a general resemblance to G. grantia (McClell.) of India. It will be enough, 
perhaps, to point out the differences between the two. G. viridanus is a dull 
green G. grantia ; the red on the back is less vivid, and is much mixed up with 
green ; the yellow on the throat, sides of face, and back of neck in G. grantia,
