LESS than the last. Bill and eyes black ; general colour of the 

 plumage cinereous, mixed with sea-green, most so on the upper 

 parts ; and the bird, if exposed to the sun, appears very glossy. 



Inhabits Cayenne, with the Bishop Tanager, but more rare ; is 

 called by the natives Sayacou. Some have thought this to be the 

 young of the Paradise Tanager,* but it seems a differently made 

 bird, and the tail shorter.

SIZE of a Linnet; the length four inches and a half; extent of 

 wing seven. Bill brown; plumage above green, mixed with brown ; 

 rump wholly green ; chin and throat brown, margins of the feathers 

 whitish ; breast the same, with a mixture of yellowish ; from thence 

 to the vent yellowish white, tinged with green ; quills and tail brown, 

 the latter one inch and a quarter long, edged with green ; the legs 

 brown.— Found at Cayenne, and is probably an incomplete bird, but 

 whether allied to the last species is not certain.

THIS is nearly the size of a Chaffinch; and almost six inches
