The rufous edgings to the secondary wing-feathers render this 
Guan readily recognizable. The superciliary stripe, although distinct, 
is not so broad as in P. jacucaca, nor does it extend across the fore- 
head as in the latter species. 
There are several examples of this bird now living in the Society’s 
Gardens.

Sclater has examined two skins of this Guan in the Paris Mu- 
seum, which are marked Pipile argyrotis in Bonaparte’s own hand- 
writing, and has thus determined the species to which the term is 
referable. This could hardly have been even guessed at from the 
fragment of description attached to the name in the ‘Comptes 
Rendus.’ 
The distinct and peculiar terminal tail-band at once distinguishes 
this Penelope from all its congeners.
