原书文字(英文 / 法文)
This species of Adelomyia is easily recognized by the colour of the under surface of its body, which is buff with the flanks rufous; a further character is the brown-spotted throat.
It was discovered near Medellin, in the province of Antioquia in the United States of Colombia, by the late Mr. T. K. Salmon, and the following is a copy of the original description:—
Crown and all the upper surface bronzy green; over and behind the eye and curving down the sides of the neck a conspicuous mark of buffy white; ear-coverts blackish brown; throat, sides of the neck, and centre of the abdomen delicate fawn-colour, with very minute speckles of brown on the former; flanks bronzy russet, with reflections of golden yellow-brown; under tail-coverts hoary buff; wings purplish brown; tail very dark olive, glossed with green; all the feathers tipped with buff, but less so on the two centre ones; bill black on the upper mandible, the lower one lighter and inclined to flesh-colour at the base.
Total length 4 inches, bill
, wing 2 , tail 1 .
The Plate represents an adult male in two positions, the figures being drawn from a specimen obtained by Mr. T. Kx. Salmon in Antioguia, and lent to us by Messrs. Salvin and Godman.
