The Phaon Comet (Cometes Phaon), John Gould The few lines given as an introduction to my account of Cometes sparganurus applies in an equal degree to this rare and lovely species, which may safely dispute for the palm of beauty with its near ally. 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."
