SIZE of the Red Chatterer, with a correfponding bill, and at firft 
fight not unlike that bird: the general colour is olive; the feathers 
gloffed with copper and orange bronze at the tips: the crown is red ; 
cheeks orange; the breaft and belly fanguineous, gloffed with green on 
the margins. On comparing it with the Red Chaiterer, we further find 
that the feathers of the head and neck are fmaller and ftiffer than the 
others ; thofe on the cheeks:curled, on the ears full and long; and the 
wings are longer, for they reach above a quarter way on the tail, 
which is rounded at the end: legs brown. 
Inhabits Surinam. 
Ampelis lutea, Izd. Orx. i. p. 368, 13.—Mu/. Carlf, fa/c- iii. t. 70. 
ENGTH fix inches and a half: bill black; at the gape a fpot 
of white: the body above is olive brown; beneath yellow, grow- 
ing white towards the vent; rump yellow: the two middle tail 
feathers are black, tipped with yellow, the others dufky yellow: the 
Jegs are black. 
Weare not told from whence the above came: the bill is a trifle 
bent, but very fharp at the tip, appearing more like that of an Oriole 
than.a Chatterer.
