The full-dress bird is entirely scarlet, the bases of the 'feathers being 

 black ; the wings, the tail, and the preocular spot are black ; the tipper 

 ■wing-coverts are black with a scarlet band on the outer webs nearly in 

 the middle, but not extending to the extremity of the feather ; the inner 

 margins of the remiges are white ; the irides are rich brown ; the edges of 

 the lower maxilla yellow ; tongue yellow ; legs and feet yellowish green ; 

 soles yellow. 



The young male is at first almost entirely greyish brown ; the throat is 

 pale grey ; but quite below the maxilla and under the eyes the orange-red 

 colour indicates the coming scarlet ; the back is greyish-brown, but of a 

 deeper colour in the uropygial region ; the wings and the tail are brown- 

 ish grey ; the breast and under tail-coverts greenish fulvous ; the margins 

 of the upper wing-coverts pale fawn colour with, in some lights, reflections 

 of red; the margins of the remiges are olive-grey; the throat, the front 

 of the head, the breast, and the uropygial region are the first to assume 

 the scarlet colour of the adult ; the angle of the wing has a dirty-white 

 spot, which, with the olive-grey margins of the remiges, are the last to 

 change to black.
