The ARAPONGA (_Chasmarhynchus variegatus_) is also white over the greater
portion of its body, but the delicate purity of its hue is marred by
a slight intermixture of grey. The wings are deep black, and the top
of the head pale brown. The front of the throat is bare, but studded
with a multitude of small, fleshy, worm-shaped appendages, of a deep
brown colour; the beak and feet are black. The plumage of the female
is greenish, and on her throat the strange appendages of the male are
replaced by feathers.
