Length 35*1 centims. ; wing 23*0 centims. The sulphur colour is irregularly distributed on the forehead, ear-coverts, cheeks, and throat. This species was met with in flocks on the Sumbawa river. 2.

The under wing-coverts and subalars are bright cobalt in some, in others more greenish. I have retained Gray's specific name, as the present examples seemed nearest to Flores individuals; but they do not appear to me to be really separable from Timor and other birds. 3.
