The only example marked $ has the terminal portions of the 

 moustache deep blue. Two examples marked S have it white. 

 Mr. Sharpe's conclusions (I. c.)on the point were the reverse. This 

 is one of the most beautiful species of the genus. The throat is 

 bright golden ; and the whole colouring of Mr. Keuleman's figures 

 (/. c.) is much too pallid.

All the males, are without a trace of black on the upper parts. 

 They agree with Bornean and Malaccan examples (7. viridis, Bp. ?). 

 Bornean individuals are stated by Count T. Salvadori to be identical 

 with Javan (Ucc. Borneo, p. 191).
