Dr. Loria obtained a large series of specimens at Bara-Bara in Milne Bay, and at other villages on the
Kemp Welch River to the east of Port Moresby. The iris was dull chestnut, the bill yellow, and the feet blue.
The native name of the female bird was ‘“ Uanaro Uapu” (cf Salvad. /.c.). Procured by Fenichel in the
Finisterre Mountains, and by Tappenbeck on the Nuru River in German New Guinea.

Dr. A. B. Meyer (/. c.) says that the species was met with commonly by him during his journey across
North-western New Guinea. It lives on the high trees, and he says that the blue colour of the feet is
lovely, the claws grey, the bill clear yellow, and the iris clear brown. He also noticed the change of the
colour from brown to red without a moult.

female sits close at hand on the lianas or rattans, and when the male has finished, she dances with him on
the newly-cleared space.”
