Moseley's Kingfisher, a truly splendid species, is repre- 

 sented by three fully adult males. The only example pre- 

 viously known is the immature female originally described 

 by Prof. Steere. From this female type the male birds before 

 me appear to differ in the following points : — The lower ear- 

 coverts are chestnut instead of buff, the moustachial stripes 

 cobalt-blue, like the band round the crovrn of the head, and 

 there is a small triangular green patch in the middle of the 

 black interscapular region. From the adult male of H. lind- 

 sayi they are easily distinguished by the generally black 

 ground-colour of the mantle and scapulars, as well as by the 

 black margins to the feathers of the breast and flanks, only 

 those in the middle of the breast being tinged with greenish. 

 Total length 10 inches, wing 4*22, tail 3'15, tarsus 0"7.
