This specimen is mottled with dusky spots over the whole 

 under surface, and thus it agrees with Professor Reichenow's 

 characters for the young bird. Mr. Bates's example is 

 younger than that figured by Dr. Sjostedt and has a white 

 throat.

This is an adult example, the first received by the Museum. 

 The story of this species has been told by Count Salvadori 

 in the ' Ibis ' for 1903, and until I read his paper I had 

 no idea what dreadful errors I had committed !
