This is a tricky species. Several subspecies and a very complicated family. And they vary rather much in color patterns. To be sure you better refer to them as Buctcherbirds :)

A bird with many subspecies. The coloration differs between individuals. I think they give scientists a headache :)  Myself I love the very cool bill they have.
