306 Dr. R. Bowdler Sharpe on Birds 



I refer the single specimen of a Sand-Martin obtained by 

 Mr. Jackson to the present species. It is too dark bro:yn 

 for C. paludicola, but it docs not entirely agree with the 

 specimens of C. mino)' in the British Museum, having none 

 of the silvery grey appearance on the throat which I con- 

 sidered to be the character of the latter species. It is quite 

 possible, however, that I may be mistaken, and that the grey 

 shade is due to the abrasion of the plumage.

 rock, like the nests of the Edible Swift.
