 distinct, and not so broad as in the South-African species ; 

 it has also pure white under tail-coverts without any dusky 

 cross-bars. The under wing- coverts are, moreover, pure 

 vinous without dusky cross-bars, and the tint of the rufous 

 colour on the sides of the body and the thighs is very light 

 vinous, not inclining to chestnut as in yi. unduliv enter .
