In the young maie n°. 113, and also in n°. 74, which is apparently also a young maie, 

 the tailfeathers are tipped with dull red. In ail the old maies, the green spécimens, the tail- 

 feathers are much abraded, so that in some spécimens the yellow tips to the feathers are 

 almost wanting. The tail in the red, female, spécimens is not so much abraded, only one 

 spécimen has the tail worn as in the maies. The wings of the maies measure from 235 to 

 255 mm., of the females from 230 to 245 mm.
