XANTHOURA LUXUOSA SPECIOSA Nelson. 

 JALISOAN GREEN JAY. 



Similar to X. I. vivida, but larger (except bill and feet); palpebral 

 spots white or bluish white, instead of rich blue; forehead yellow- 

 ish white or light yellow, this more extended than the white in X. I. 

 vivida, and extended backward, more or less distinctly, along edges 

 of the blue occipital and nuchal patch; occiput, nape, and hind- 

 neck much paler blue than in X. I. vlvida (pale campanula or purplish 

 azure instead of rich campanula or almost smalt blue), the hindneck 

 paler than occiput, and all the feathers of this blue area distinctly pale 



«Dr. Sclater' s argument against the applicability of the name to the present form 

 is, however, quite untenable, some examples having the under parts exactly as 

 purely and wholly yellow as the Venezuelan bird (A', yncas chloronota), to which 

 Dr. Sclater thinks the above name referable.
