Trogon puella, 1858
Dates
- Creation: 1858
Physical Description
Full sheet pencil; watercolor
General
Harpactes reinwardtii. Alternate name on piece: Trogon puella Rough layout drawing, color added; breast more like the light orange of the description of Gould 941, as in the published plate; "Aurantiiventris from Bridges and Salle"; "Reverse one of the two species." According to Gould's text the only difference between T. aurantiventris and T. puella is the breast color; it would appear that there was some confusion at the time the two plates were in preparation. Artist's name(s): Gould, John; Richter, Henry Constantine.
