The yonng bird (No. 4210) is of interest. It is evidently in the first plumage, 

 just OBt of nest. The crown is dull deep brown, with a few blue feathers sprouting, 

 sides of head darker. Underside dull white, sides of body cinnamon rufous, back 

 dark cinnamon rufous, upper tail-coverts blackish. 



c?? ad ; Upper Eilanden River, 4. iii. 1911. (Nos. 5479, 5480, A. S. Meek 

 Coll.) 



In the male the breast is not so deep blue-black as in those from the Setekwa 

 River, but the intensity of the colours varies in these birds. 



Possibly our T. c. dokertyi from Takar (cf Nuv. Zool. 1903. p. 477) will not 

 be tenable, the dark colour of the back perhaps being due to dampness of the 

 skins while drying.
