It is confined to that island and lives in tropical moist lowland forests. The male is mostly white, with blue wings and tail, a turquoise crown, a black bill and a bold black line through the eye. The female is much the same, but shows blue on the lower back. It was described by Ramsay, EP, in 1884.
