		Traces of red coloring were evident in the crowns of four Honduran, one Chiapan, and one E1 Salvador males (traces in six of 48 males, or 13% of all males).
		Crown color of mexicanoides is assigned a score of "4," as in the cafer group, because the rufous-chestnut color exhibited is closer to the browns of that group than to the grays of the auratus group.
