I do not see any reason to alter my opinion about this 

 species, notwithstanding the doubts thrown on it by 

 Dr. Forbes and Mr. Robinson (Bull. Liverp. Mus. i. no. 1, 

 pp. 10-11). The larger size of all specimens from Ecuador 

 and the constant red patches on the lower part of the 

 cheeks in adult birds are sufficient characters to recognise 

 this form as distinct from C. leucophthalmus, of which I have 

 never seen an authentic specimen from Eastern Ecuador.
