644 BIRDS OF SOUTH AFRICA. 
Dr. Hartlanb under the name of Otis picturata, states that it is 
“found abundantly all along the littoral region of Angola, becoming 
more so in the vicinity of Benguela.” Senor Anchieta does not, 
however, appear to have come across the species as yet, though 
Prof. Barboza du Bocage gives the following description of it. 
Male.—Above clear fulvous, vermiculated with blackish; crown 
ashy blue rayed with brown; eyebrow, and a malar streak, nape, 
middle of the throat and a longitudinal median band on the fore- 
part of the neck, black; sides of head white; lower parts dirty 
white ; first and second quills blackish, rufous white near the base, 
the others buffy white, with the tip blackish.
