176. Glareola emini, sp. n. 



$. Lado, Oct. 18, 1884. Iris umber-brown; culmen and end 

 of bill black, base of bill and legs vermilion. 



This species is closely allied to G. tnegapoda, Gray, and G. nuchalis, 

 Gray. From the former it differs in having the nuchal collar white 

 instead of chestnut-buif, from the latter in being much larger and 

 in not havhig any white on the outer webs of the secondaries. 



G. emini: total length 7'9 inches, wing 6-1, tail 2-8, tarsus 0-8. 



G. nuchalis : total length 5-6 inches, wing 5*5, tail 2-4, tarsus 0*8. 



I have compared the specimen from Lado with three adults and 

 an immature of G. megapoda and with the type of G. nuchalis.
