Description.—Adult male. Fore-head, lores, and crown as far back as 
the back of the eye, dull yellowish-green, changing into a beautiful blue-grey 
on the nape, hind-neck, and upper-back where it in turn changes into the 
brownish-green of the back, scapulars, rump, and upper tail-coverts and 
smaller wing-coverts; these last and the rump are rather less brown, and 
the upper tail-coverts somewhat more brown than that of the other parts. 
Tail dark ashy-grey with a broad terminal band of pale grey, and a dark, 
almost black subterminal band, very broad and dark on the outermost 
feathers, and less distinct and narrower on the central ones. Chin, throat, 
and fore-neck green, more yellow on the chin and the centre of the throat ; 
a broad band of lilac across the breast and bending backwards towards the 
shoulders of the wing so as to nearly enclose a second broad band of orange ; 
lower-breast pale yellowish-green, changing into bright king’s yellow on the 
abdomen ; tibial plumes yellow, splashed with dark green and grey; under 
tail-coverts cinnamon, the outermost feathers with pale yellowish edges. 
Quills nearly black, the outer primaries narrowly edged with bright pale
