THIS is the size of the preceding, and is sup- 

 posed by many to be the female of that species; 

 but it appears to differ too materially for that to 

 be the case : the crown of the head and nape of 

 the neck are fine blue grey: the chin and fore- 

 part of the neck and breast black : ears with a 

 white patch : lower part of the neck, back, wings, 

 and tail, pale green : belly, thighs, and vent, 

 yellow: length seven inches and a half: beak and 

 legs black. Inhabits New South Wales.
