A VOYAGE TO 
The difpofltion of the blue is found to differ in mod 
of the fpecimens. In the prefent variety, the whole 
head is enveloped in blue, which terminates in an irre- 
gularly waving line, and is continued belo^^' the eye in a 
broad band, edged in the fame manner, and running 
alnioit to a point, as low as the bottom of the neck on 
each iide ; but there is no band continued round the 
neck, which, both above and below, is of the deep bhie 
like velvet, mentioned by Mr. Latham, Some feathers 
of a very bright orange lie immediately under that blue,- 
and above the wings -''^ 
■* The Specimens from which Mr. Latham took his defcriptions were met 
v/i£h at Van Diemen's Land, the moft foiithern part of New Holland.
