Allied Emerald (Thaumatias affinis), John Gould Mr. Reeves of Rio de Janeiro has more than once called my attention to the Humming Bird figured on the accompanying Plate, which he considers to be quite distinct from, though closely allied to, Thaumatias brevirostris, and which bis hunters inform him arrives at Novo Friburgo at another season, has a different note, and places its nest in a different situation. This illustration has been restored to its original vibrancy by enhancing colors and removing unwanted marks. A monograph of the Trochilidæ, or family of humming-birds was published between 1849 and 1887 by English ornithologist John Gould. This monumental work depicts and describes all the known species of hummingbirds at the time - comprising 418 lithographic plates and information on 537 species."
