Wing, 15.00-18.00 ; tail, 10.50-12.00; culmen, 1.10-1.35; tarsus, 2.45- 
4.80; middle toe, 1.70-2.10. Bill elongated and compressed, the tip 
well produced; upper outline of the cere nearly parallel with the lower. 
Primaries decidedly longer than the secondaries, the inner webs of the 
outer five or six slightly sinuated; fourth or fifth quill longest; first 
shorter than the ninth. Tail nearly even, but the lateral pair slightly 
shortest. Upper tail-coverts white. Adult :—Uniform black, with more 
or less of a plumbeous cast, especially on the neck, jugulum, and back ; 
remiges indistinctly banded with dark plumbeous. Upper tail-coverts’ 
end of tail, and one or two wide bands across the tail, pure white : 
tibiae and lining of the wing sometimes barred with white. u Iris 
brown; cere, lores, and feet yellow.” Young :—Above blackish-brown

the remiges indistinctly banded with black. Head, neck, and lower 
parts light oehraceous, each feather with a sharply-defined medial 
streak of black; these streaks lanceolate outlie head and neck, more 
cuneate on the jugulum, and on the abdomen and side sometimes suf¬ 
fused into a prevalent irregular spotting. Tibke transversely barred 
with black and light oehraceous. On the head, the dark streaks are 
very minute, or nearly absent, in a conspicuous, broad, superciliary 
stripe, and on the cheeks and throat; while they blend from the pos¬ 
terior angle of the eye back along the upper edge of the auriculars, 
thence down the side of the neck, and across the jugulum, forming au in¬
