it laid five or six small white eo-o-s in England, 
and lived fourteen years in that climate. But 
the species is different from the foregoing ; 
for, though both are common in Cayenne, 
they never associate together, hut keep in 
great separate flocks, and the Males resemble 
the Females. The Golden-Crowned Parroquet 
is called, in Guiana, the Parroquet of the Sa- 
vannas. It speaks extremely weli, and is very 
fondling and Intelligent ; whereas the preceding 
is not esteemed, and articulates with diiSculty. 
This handsom.e Parroquet has a large orange 
spot on the fore part of the head ; the rest of 
the head, all the upper side of the. bodv, the 
wings, and the tail, are of a deep green ; the 
throat, and the lower part of the neck, are of 
a yellowish green, with a slight tinge of dull 
red ; and the rest of the under side of the 
body is pale green. Some of the great su- 
perior coverts of the wings are edged exte- 
riorly with blue ; the outer side of the fea- 
thers of the middle of the winos is also of a 
fine blue, which forms on eacli wing a broad 
longitudinal band of that beautiful colour. 
The iris is vivid orange. The bill and feet 
are blackish."
