42 Oherholsei — A Neiv Otocoris from Lower California. 



flanks, thighs, and sides of breast and of bodj' light brownish cinnamon ; 

 rest of lower parts, including lining of wings, white. 



This new race is in color very similar to Otocoris alpestris leucoUtema, but 

 is more gra5'ish above, at least when in good i)luniage ; and has the eye- 

 brow usually more yellowish ; furthermore, the greatlj'^ inferior size of 

 Otocoris a. enertera distinguishes it at once. From Otocoris alpestris actio, 

 whose range it approaches most closely, it differs very much more than 

 from either Otocorts a.avunopjiila or O.a. /f»oo^rem«, being strikingly paler 

 and more grayish throughout, as well as somewhat smaller. 



The type specimen above described still retains some of the brownish 

 gray edgings of crown, jugulum, and cervix, but otherwise represents the 

 perfect breeding plumage. When badly worn, 0. a. enertera looks more 

 like 0. a. animopliiln than when in fresh condition, though it is still more 

 grayish and pinkish above, and of course smaller. Otocoris alpestris enertera 

 appears to be non-migratory ; and its range, so far as known, extends in 

 Lower California from Santa Rosalia Bay to the neighborhood of Magda- 

 lena Bay.
