This beautifully coloured bird, which was first discovered by De- 

 lattre in Veragua, has been generally supposed to be the šame as the 

 C. larvata, and it was only upon a close examiuation of the specimen 

 lately procured by Mr. Bridges, and comparison of it with indivi- 

 duals of the other species, that I was enabled to recognize its dif- 

 ference. This Calliste is slightly smaller than the larvata, and has 

 the head of a mueh lighter golden green, in sonie hghts pagsing 

 almost into pale green. In the other bird these parts are more of a 

 coppery brown. In this species, also, the lower back and edgings 

 of the middle and greater wing-coverts are of a much greener tinge, 

 and there is more white in the middle of the belly and crissura.
