everetti, Rothsch. Nov. Zool. i. p. 41 (1894). 
**Q. everetti resembles O: axillaris from the Philippines, but is altogether a larger 
bird; the purplish chestnut mantle is bordered above by a very conspicuous 
interscapulary band of lavender-grey, of the same colour as the crown; this 
colour is of a lighter shade than in O. axillaris, and the interscapulary band is 
much less distinct and not so pure grey in the latter. 
“In O. everetti, the green of the neck and breast is a shade lighter and more tinged 
with yellow, the abdomen paler and more greyish along the middle. 
‘“‘T have no female of true O. axillaris to compare, but the female of O. everetti seems 
to be larger, and the mantle much darker olive. 
“Total length of my O. everetti is about 11 inches; wing, 6°35 to 6°5 (? 6:4 to 6°5) ; 
tail, 3°6 to 3°65; bill, 075; tarsus, 0°9.” (Rothschild). 
‘Tris greenish silvery ” (A. Hverett) ; ‘‘iris pearly green, bill red at base, blue at tip, 
feet pale slate” (H. Guillemard). Habitat. Sulu Archipelago (Sulu, Meimbun, 
Sibutu, and Bongao Islands). 
Messrs. Bourns and Worcester, in their elaborate paper on the ornithology of the 
Philippine Islands (Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus. xx. p. 551), apparently do not recog- 
nise this species, as specimens from the Sulu Archipelago are listed under 
O. axillaris.

One of these specimens is apparently not quite adult, and has green bases to the 
cinnamon feathers of the breast. All three, however, agree in lacking the ochre- 
yellow tinge on the breast, which is markedly present in our two specimens of 
O. fulvicollis typicus, which have on their labels ‘‘ Columba cinnamomea, n. sp.”, 
and were probably collected by S. Miiller in Southern Borneo.

ruddy than back. Four outer pairs of tail feathers dark brown, lighter at base. 
Two central pairs ruddy brown, with bronze reflections. All the tail feathers 
with ashy tips, which form a distinct terminal band } inch in width. Shafts of 
tail feathers black. Wing-coverts with secondaries uniform with back. Prim-
