"Female. Differs from the male in having the lores, cheeks, chin, and 

 upper throat pale blue, and no red patch on the lower throat and upper 

 breast. 



"Young. Crown-feathers green at the base and tipped with orange 

 instead of red; the back pure green, not suffused with yellow, the 

 uropygium less intense crimson, mixed more or less with green; cheeks, 

 chin, and throat green, but in a second stage these parts become more and 

 more tinged with blue." (Salvadori.) 



"Abundant in Zamboanga. The Panay record made by Count Salva- 

 dori for this species on the strength of a specimen collected by Mr. Wor- 

 cester and marked from that island is certainly an error, probably due 

 to the misplacing of a label, as Mr. Worcester never shot L. apicalis in 

 Panay." (Bourns and Worcester MS.)
