"Eyebrow" like 3. Each of the states in the multistate characters was considered to operate as a two-state character, as follows: Eyebrow: A thin fringe in the superciliary region formed by bristles. We distinguished three states: 17. — Without differentiated eyebrow (Fig. 1: 1). 18. — With an incomplete dark-brown colored eyebrow (Fig. 1: 2). 19. — Complete eyebrow, well differentiated, black colored (Fig. 1: 3 and 4). Steel gray color in the web of the big scapulars and flight feathers. Three states can be distinguished: 20. — Lack of steel-gray color. 21. — Presence of steel-gray color but never covering more than 50 °7o of the vane. 22. — Presence of steel-gray color covering most of the vane. The following measurements were taken of each specimen: WL = Wing length with tape following the curvature TL = Tail length from the base of the rectrices.
