" In the male, the head, throat, and crest is very deep glossy 
steel-green ; upper surface, -wings, and tail very deep chestnut ; 
primaries and secondaries black, margined with deep chestnut on 
their outer webs ; chest dark grey ; abdomen and under tail-coverts 
greyish white ; bill blue. In the young bird, the head and neck are 
dull black ; back and wings deep chestnut ; wings brownish black, 
margined with pale chestnut ; tail brown ; breast and flanks sooty ; 
middle of the abdomen and vent dull white. 
This species is intermediate in colour between Tch. paradisi and 
Tch. principalis of Japan ; it partakes of the characters of both, but 
is quite distinct from either; from the former, it differs in the 
broader, rounder, and shorter plumes of the crest, and in the dark 
chestnut colouring of the upper surface; and from the Japanese 
bird in the dark colouring of the throat not extending on to the 
flanks, in the upper surface not being of so rich a plum-colour, and 
in the tail being chestnut instead of black." — (Gould.)
