Messrs. Bourns and Worcester insist on the specific 
distinction of LZ. worcesteri from L. apicalis as follows :— 
“« First, the red mark on crown of Samar birds is distinctly 
narrower than in those from Mindanao, and tapers sharply 
to a point on the nape, instead of spreading out and ending 
broadly. 
“« Secondly, the feathers of the back are barely tinged with 
golden, not one of our specimens showing anything like the 
amount of colour exhibited by Mindanao birds.”
