IDentificAtion. We observed this species in various places in the EET, but it was especially common around the head office where it was eating fruits of Sterculia apetala (Jacq.) H. Karst. We identified this species by its song and coloration: the eyes are white and surrounded by blue skin; the back and wings are green; and the belly is yellow, crossed by a red band ( Gwynne et al. 2010).
