I was at one time inclined to refer this form to the young of 

 S. jyudica, but cannot satisfy myself that this would be correct. The 

 distinguishing feature of the species is the long tail (measuring from 

 4 to 4-4) and the narrowness of the rectrices. The colour below is 

 not uniform dark cinereous as in S. jmdica, but more nearly resembles 

 that of >S. hi/jiospodia, being pale cinereous, with the throat-feathers 

 dark at their bases and silvery white at their tips, and the middle 

 of the belly nearly white.
