tail, wings and under parts we observe a stain of brown and 
dull red, paling here and there into mauve or ash. This little 
bird, not much more than eight inches long, nearly half of 
which is tail, is a native of Waigiou, but probably he extends 
his wanderings throughout most of Papua. A crest marks 
this species also.
