Golden- Wjnged Parrakeet. Edw. pL 293./. 2. Lath. syn. 



First described by Edwards : size scarcely larger 

 than that of a Lark: habit rather stout: colour 

 bright-green, somewhat yellower beneath: on each 

 wing a lengthened orange-coloured patch, formed 

 by some of the middle quill-feathers and larger 

 coverts: the larger quill-feathers are blue on the 

 middle of the outside edges, as are likewise the 

 scapulars, thus bounding the orange spot with 

 blue: bill pale, and rather of a more lengthened 

 figure than in most other parrots : orbits bare and 

 whitish: legs dusky. Native of the East Indies.
