 Duenas" and San Geronimo, Guatemala). — Shaepe and Wyatt, Mon. 



«Sharpe's description (Cat. Birds Brit. Mus., x, p. 120) of the supposed "adult 

 male in winter plumage," from Duenas, seems more like that of the true T. thalassina, 

 which usually has the back purplish instead of green; but the upper tail-coverts and 

 rump are described as being "green' and purple" instead of green alone, as in the 

 Mexican resident form. It is possible that both subspecies occur in Guatemala in 

 winter, but of course this can only be determined by examination of specimens.
