Hah. Luzon, January {Meyer). 



Two examples, both marked female, were obtained by Dr. Meyer. One is in full 

 plumage, with all its colours fresh and bright, the maroon collar well developed ; this 

 I believe to be a male. The other has its markings less sharply defined, the black of 

 the throat mixed with grey, and the pectoral band of the same colour as the back; in 

 its dimensions it considerably exceeds the first.
