Translation of manuscript note on accompanying leaf: Aves Picae Corvus
Corvus granadensis
C. with a black front of the head and black breast, tawny back, violet wings, and a tail that is white underneath and at the tip.
It is the size of the Corvi glandarii. The head is black at the front and ash-coloured at the back, with a bluish-white patch
near the base of the lower mandible. The beak is black
and straight but without any teeth near the tip, it is very similar
to other Laniis [butcher birds]. The throat and breast are black,
with the lowest feathers being white at the tip. The top of the
neck is the same ash-colour as the hindhead. The abdomen is
pale, as are the knees. The back is tawny. The wings are
violet, the tail is as long as the body, it is violet-black on top,
and white underneath and at the tip; there are twelve
somewhat even flight feathers on the tail: those on the sides
are a little shorter.
Obs[ervation]: It raises the ash-coloured feathers that are
towards the front of the hindhead.
It lives in the Grenadine Islands.
