Morphometric measurements, , bill length, wing length and fork of tail (difference between inner and outermost rectrix), taken with a digital caliper, were compared statistically (Man-Whitney U-test, p < ). We analyzed plumage patterns by means of an illuminating magnifying glass (x 10) under constant artificial light conditions. Descriptions of colours (capitalized, numbers in brackets) refer to Smithe (1975).
