In most of the examples the feathers of the occiput are dark, 

 bordered with reddish ; but there are some specimens which show 

 gradual transitions to a uniform red crown ; among these last 

 is an individual from Karoo, which is also distinguished by hav- 

 ing a redder breast, and the feathers above edged with a lively 

 rust-yellow.

The young bird from Urui is not nearly full-grown. Its en-

 the head the grey is wanting ; still the space which should be oc-

 green. The black throat-bands are wanting. The bill is of a 

 dark brown instead of being red.
