Adult female . — Differs from the male in being duller brown above and in having the wing-coverts 
brown like the back, the median and greater coverts with triangular spots of black at the tip, the outermost 
of the former with a white spot at the end ; primary-coverts blackish brown ; lores and ear-coverts brown, 
forming a streak along the sides of the head, above which is a tolerably well-defined white eyebrow; cheeks 
and throat pure white ; remainder of undersurface of body from the lower throat downwards orange- 
chestnut shading into fulvous brown on the flanks ; under wing- and tail-coverts as in the male. 
Total length 8*75 inches, culmen 095, wing 3*75, tail 3*5, tarsus 1*2. 
The figures in the Plate represent a male and the supposed adult female, of the natural size ; that of the 
male is drawn from a specimen in my own collection, and the female from a skin now in the British 
Museum.
