feathers also shaded with greenish in certain lights; quills brown, tipped 
with whitish, barred with purplish brown, the secondaries very much 
paler brown, against which the bands of darker brown contrast strongly, 
especially the subterminal one, which has a distinct purplish gloss; under 
surface of quills grayish white, with dark brown bands, pure white near 
the base; tail brown, tipped with whity brown, and crossed by three bands 
of dark purplish brown, the subterminal one being very broad, and glossed 
with greenish ; under surface of tail grayish white, like that of the wings, 
the subterminal band distinctly marked, the basal ones very faintly, 
excepting on the outermost feathers, which have a patch of dark brown 
on the outer web, extending on to the inner one also; under surface of 
body whitish, broadly streaked on sides of throat and chest, banded on 
breast, and spotted on under tail-coverts with pale rufous, darker and 
more inclining to rufous-brown on flanks, sides of body, and axillars; 
down the center of the throat extending to the fore neck, a broad black 
streak; under wing-coverts buffy white, spotted with pale rufous, the 
lower ones barred with this color. Bill horn-black, browner on lower 
mandible; feet yellow. Length, 444; culmen, 38; wing, 312; tail, 206; 
tarsus, 38. ‘ 
“Adult male (type).—Another specimen in the national collection 
(British Museum) differs from the foregoing in not having so stout a 
bill, in the sides of the face being more conspicuously gray, this shade 
also extending over the throat and breast, the former of which is narrowly 
streaked with grayish down the center; the crown of the head is blackish, 
feathers of the forehead being edged with rufous; the sides and hind 
part of the neck similarly marked, producing a striped appearance ; oc- 
cipital crest black, with a narrow white tip to one or two of the feather ; 
the bands on the breast very broad and pale rufous. Length, 389; cul- 
men, 34; wing, 292; tail, 190; tarsus, 38. This would apparently be the 
adult male, and the other perhaps a female not quite adult.” (Sharpe.)
