212 GENERA AND SPECIES. 



It is but a just compliment to Mr. Gould that 

 this bird should bear his name as its specific 

 appellative. 



The native country of this species is unknown ; 

 we suspect it to be Brazil. The female, if in 

 any European collection, does not appear to have 

 been identified. In Gould's cabinet.
