DEFINITIONS

CALYPTOMENA
(Calyptomenidae; Ϯ Green Broadbill C. viridis) Gr. καλυπτος kaluptos  covered  < καλυπτω kaluptō  to conceal; μηνη mēnē  moon; "The first, which I propose to name Calyptomena (a καλυπτω, velo), is characterized as follows:  Bill depressed and broad at the base, hooked at the point, and almost concealed by the feathers of the head.  Nostrils round.  Tongue short.  Feet gressorial.    CALYPTOMENA VIRIDIS.  BURONG TAMPO PINANG.   ...  This very singular and beautiful bird is about six inches and a half in length.  Its colour is a brilliant green, like that of the Parrots.  The head is rather large, and its feathers are directed forwards from each side in such a manner as nearly to conceal the bill, giving the face a very peculiar appearance."
