Inhabits Brazil. Length near five inches : greatly 

 allied to the last, the colours being disposed in the 

 same way : the chief distinction consists in this spe- 

 cies wanting the spots on the three secondary quills 

 nearest the body : this has also the tail proportionally 

 longer : the beak stouter, shorter, less depressed, and 

 with fewer bristles. The female is less brilliant in 

 colour.
