first summer plumage. The bird from Khartum has a 
yellowish eyebrow-stripe, which is characteristic of M. 
campestris, hut nevertheless it appears to be an immature 
specimen of M. flava. There is an adult example of the 
latter species in summer plumage in the British Museum, 
which has the eyebrow-stripe yellowish posteriorly.

Dr. Reichenow separates African examples of this species 
from typical Indian specimens on account of their some- 
what larger size. After measuring a number of specimens 
in the British Museum I think it best to accept the name 
A. cinnamomeus for the African bird. 
He gives the following comparative measurements :— 
A. cinnamomeus, A. rufulus.
