Iris reddish or reddish-brown; upper mandible black, 

 lower yellowish flesh-colour ; feet olive-green. 



Examples of this very handsome species from the steep 

 banks of the Upper Utakwa River do not appear to differ 

 in any way from typical examples from the Owen Stanley 

 Mountains. 



Among the recent accessions in the British Museum there 

 are several specimens from Bagutana Camp, Owen Stanley 

 Range, 8000 ft., collected by Mr. W. Goodfellow. Two of 

 these are quite young male birds, and have the blue on the 

 crown much duller than in the adult and confined to the 

 hinder part ; the crown dark dull brown instead of jet-black ; 

 the greater and median wing-coverts conspicuously tipped 

 with bright rufous-buff ; and no white stripe above the buff 

 ear-coverts. The younger of the two males has all the tail- 

 feathers in quill and they measure about 20 mm.
