Differs from the Indian examples only in having a much shorter 
sub-ocular tuft of a deeper crimson colour. 
“In fine examples of Indian specimens,” remarks Mr. Blyth, 
“the longest of the hair-like plumes composing this ornamental tuft 
measures above ths of an inch, passing considerably beyond the 
extremities of the white ear-coverts, and impending their upper 
half; while in equally fine specimens from Malacca, they appear as 
if truncated, and impend only the basal third of the white ear- 
coverts: in other respects the two birds are exactly similar.”
