T ENGTH fix inches. Bill black : upper parts of the olive

 the eye, a ftreak of white ; and a fecond in the direction of the 

 lower jaw: tail longifli, and even at the end: legs black. 



The native place of the above is uncertain ; but I fufpeft it to 

 be a mere variety of the Olive Tanager,

genus.
