Fig. 8.  Electronic appendix.  Colour versions of two paintings based on the holotype of P. lucianii (see Appendix) illustrate different interpretations of the specimen but agree in showing the diagnostic lack of bright red in the plumage, extremely limited blue in the forehead and pale subterminal bands of the feathers of the upper chest and throat.  See Appendix for details.  Upper, from Castelnau (1855); lower from Souancé (1857).
