We should suggest, however, that the race indicated 

 by Hartert {Yo^. pal. Fauna, i. p. 234) as Galerida 

 cristata subsp. ? from the Abyssinian coast-lands, and 

 subsequently named G. c. nubica by Bianchi (Bull. Acad. 

 Sci. Petersburg, xxv. 1905, p. 69), is identical with this 

 subspecies.

There are two Crested Larks in the Chapman and Lynes 

 collection from the Sinkat-Erkowit plain which are quite 

 different from the others from the Red Sea Province. One 

 especially is exceedingly pale, but both are paler isabelline 

 than even G. c. isabellina from Khartoum, and very much 

 paler than G. c. eritrem. 



Tliere is also one bird in the same collection from the 

 White Nile in Lat. 15° N. This, uhich one would expect 

 to be the pale form, G. c. isabellina, is not, but is darker, 

 resembling on the back G. c. eritrece, hut with the throat 

 more finely streaked. We have no other specimens from 

 ■ south of Khartoum. 



Galerida cristata altirostris.

Dr. Hartert states (Nov. Zool. xxiv. 1917, p. 440) that 

 G. c. altirostris Brehm also occurs in the northern part 

 of the Sudan, along the Dongola bend of the Nile. The 

 type was obtained near Ambukol, and others in the Tring 

 Museum were collected at Merowe, also in Dongola.
