Mr. Ogilvie-Grant says :—* A male anda female collected 
by Mr. A. H. Everett on the island of Mantanani are 
determined by Count Salvadori (cf. Cat. B. Brit. Mus. xx. 
p. 424) as immature examples of 7. luconensis ; but J think 
this is a mistake, for both the examples in question have the 
blue on the top of the head extending from the back of the 
forehead to the nape, which leaves no doubt in my mind that 
they are adult birds; they resemble immature examples of 
T. luconensis in having the shoulders green instead of black, 
and all the feathers of the inner and median wing-coverts 
green margined with orange-yellow. Tctal length 12°5- 
12-2 inches, wing 7°3-7°15, tail 4°-7—4°8, tarsus 0°75-0°7.”
