1060. ABACHNOTHERA TEMMIN OKI, Moore. 
A. Temminclci, n. sp. Upper-parts dull olive-green; upper tail- 
coverts tinged with orange-yellow ; under-parts paler and yellower 
olive-green, passing to yellow on the abdomen, and to brighter yeUow 
on the vent and under tail-coverts ; pectoral tuft deep orange-yellow ; 
the feathers of the flanks and sides of rump long, lax, and partially 
covering the rump; wings dusky, edged -with orange-yellow; tail 
dusky, laterally edged with orange-yellow, with pale yellowish tips 
successively narrower to the middle pair. Bill strong, the ridge of 
upper mandible rounded to the tip. Length about 6 in., of wing 
34 in., tail 2 in., bill from frontal plumes 1 ^ in., and tarse f in. 
a. From Middleton's Collection. 
Remark. — This species is somewhat allied to A. uropygialis, Gray, 
Gen. of B. 1. plate XXXIII., the typical specimen of which in the 
British Museum I have compared, but differs in being smaller, the 
under-parts being without the streaks on the throat and breast. 
In A. uropygialis (which name, we presume, is applied from the 
long and lax yellow feathers on the sides of the rump, but which 
cover the rump in the drawing of the typical specimen), the length 
of the bill is Ij^in., the upper mandible being rounded to the tip 
as in A. Temmincki and A. flavigaster, and the wing is 3^ in.
