O I Z E of the Pettkhaps. Bill lead-colour ; beneath whitifh : the 

 forehead is blueifh green : rump green gold : the upper parts 

 of the head, neck, and back, are fine black, mixed with blue 

 green : throat violet 1 fore part of the neck the fame, mixed with 

 brown : the reft of the under parts rufous : greater wing co- 

 verts, quills, and tail, black, edged with blue : legs cine- 

 reous. 



I fhould think that this bird varies as the laft fpecies. Brif- 

 fon's defcription fays, the forehead and rump are both gold- 

 colour : beneath pale blue : bottom of the belly chefnut. 



That in Bancroft is faid to be blue, except the belly and back 

 parts, which are reddifh. This likewife agrees with the defcrip- 

 tion of Edwards.
