1922.] (Collection of Birds made in the Sudan. nOf) 



Streptopelia senegalensis sudanensis Sclater & Praed. 



A pair from Haifa, Feb. 1921. 



Senegal Doves from Haifa, Berber, and Dongola are dis- 

 tinctly paler than birds from Rejaf. Examples from the Blue 

 Nile are intermediate. With the small amount of material 

 at my disposal I have provisionally followed Scjater and 

 Praed in calling the Haifa birds sudanensis. 



Streptopelia turtur isabellina (Bonaparte). 



A male and five living examples from Haifa, Feb. 1921. 



I have one other Sudan specimen from Blue Nile 

 Province obtained l.xi. 10, where it is not uncommon in 

 winter. 



One of the living birds is a young bird in first plumage. 



I cannot separate Sudanese specimens from Egy{)tian 

 breeding birds. 



Streptopelia decipiens decipiens Finsch & Hartl. 



1 o . Kabashia, Berber, Dec. 1920. 



This example is paler on the back than examples in the 

 Giza Museum from the Blue and White Niles.

 toum and the White Nile.
