the absence of any scarlet patch in the centre of the yellow 
throat. The four specimens examined measure as follows :—

In 1852 I first saw an example of this pretty species in the 
Museo Civico at Milan, and pointed out to Dr. Cornalia the 
probability of its being new to science*. Dr. Cornalia in 
describing it was pleased to compliment me by calling it after 
my name. 
There are two specimens of this bird in the British Mu¬ 
seum, both obtained from Mr. Gould, and said to have been 
originally received from the Rio Napo. One of them, from 
which the above description has been taken, is adult, the 
other is a young bird, and has the crimson colour confined to 
the throat. I have not yet seen the female of this species. 
There is also a male example of this species in the Museum 
* There is, unfortunately, no record of the locality of this specimen; 
hut the probability is that it was one of the birds obtained by the Italian 
traveller Osculati when he descended the Napo in 1847. See Osculati’s 
‘ Esplorazione delle Regioni Equatoriali/ Milan, 1854.
