Colour charts do not treat metallic or iridescent colours, and colour descriptions in the following accounts are my own interpretations. Most of the colours should be self-evident, copper being redder than bronze, cinnamon being redder than vinaceous, etc. Purplish- copper indicates copper tinged with purple, etc. The characters of the birds from these four areas (comprising three forms) are as follows, including available data on nesting periods derived from Binford (1989), Rowley (1966, 1984), juvenile specimens, and personal observations. Immatures examined include juveniles, but juveniles were excluded from culmen measurements (culmen range given in mm; followed by mean length).
