 Lecontei in the Leiden Museum, it is evident that the bird so named is identical with the 

 present species. /. Lecontei so far as I can discover, is only known from the original 

 specimen in the Museum of the Philadelphia Academy 



The description and measurements are taken from the type specimen, from which 

 also the figures are drawn.
