Smaller than T. cambayensis ; tail shorter ; general plumage of a uniform 

 muddy isabelline colour, even the wings have no rufous tinge ; scarcely a trace 

 of markings on the breast ; head slightly tinged with lilac. (Translation.) 



Hab. Boukara. 



I have not seen specimens from Boukara, but from the fact that the bird 

 obtained in Turkestan cannot be separated, although somewhat larger, from 

 the Indian one, I am inclined to think that Bonaparte's bird is identical with 

 the true T. cambayensis.
