Description

The species is 20–23 cm (7.9–9 in) and can be quickly identified by its characteristic black mask, pointed crest, and white eyebrow. Its plumage is largely blue and green with yellow undertail-coverts. The tail of the brevicauda subspecies is noticeably shorter than that of the montium subspecies.
