The females have the spots on the tertiaries of a brilliant amethyst-blue ; in the males 
they are of the same colour, but change on the outer margins into metallic green. 
The specific distinctness of this bird from the South-African Ch. chalcospilos, which 
differs only in having metallic-green wing-spots, is not at all certain.—0O. F. 
[Iris brown ; legs and feet pink. : 
Localities: Anseba Valley to Ain and Eylet; at this latter place they were plentiful.
