This by Hartert discribed meadow-bunting differs from 

 Emberiza cia L. in having the upper parts paler. Specimen 

 b) has the feathers on the throat here and there margined 

 with dar k brown. Hartert writes in his »Vögel der Paläark- 

 tischen Fauna» that the wings in Einberiza cia par are mea- 

 suring from 88—91 mm. but as is seen by the wing-measure- 

 ments given above my specimens only are 83 and 82 mm. 

 respectively.
