Nov. Zool. viii. p. 83 (1901). 
The adult female has the head dull brownish brick-red 
(Hartert). 
Lombock birds, according to Dr. Hartert, are the same 
as those from Sumbawa or Sambawa. 
According to Dr. Finsch, the type of G. dansbergit is a 
young bird, and most likely a curious variety, with light 
brown cross-bars on the upper parts.

Similar to G. personatus in the yellowish-green coloration, 
but larger and with the cap coming much lower down on the 
nape. Wing 6:3-6°7 inches ; tail 3°5 ; bill 1-1°05. 
Hab. Sumba or Sandalwood Island. 
This is Meyer’s description, but, according to Dr. Hartert, 
Sumba birds are darker than those from Sumbawa (G. sum- 
bavensis), some of which are distinctly yellowish-green | 
The last remark about this species by Rothschild and 
Hartert reads as follows: “ Quite lke G. sumbavensis, 
but slightly larger, under wing-coverts perhaps a shade 
lighter.” 
It would be interesting to compare the female of this 
species with those of the allied forms, as in the genus Geof- 
froyus females of allied species often differ more than the 
males.
