A female from Air Njuruk has a marked wash of bright 
brown on primaries, flanks and abdomen. The immature 
birds are browner, less black throughout than the adults 
and have only developed the blue tip to the feathers of nape 
and mantle. 
A female (4th September) had developed ovaries. 
Contents of stomach : fruit, seeds, insects (as Coleop- 
tera, caterpillars, ants, etc.). 
The food is much more of a vegetable kind than in 
the other species of Arrenga and Myiophoneus, insects 
only representing a small part of the diet. 
Lives exclusively in old forest, where it frequents the 
lower trees and bushes, and descends also to the ground 
in search of its food, being often caught in the snares I had 
put on the ground. 
It is very tame and inquisitive. Often a bird followed 
me through the forest at close quarters for quite a distance. 
It is so unsuspecting that it will not fly away if a gun is 
levelled at it ; therefore it is easily obtained, as is proved 
by the very large series brought together by Robinson and 
Kloss and also by myself. 
The nest is covered outwardly with a thick layer of 
living mosses and mostly placed in the bifurcation. of a 
bough against the trunk. It is therefore very hard to detect.
