Size and general structure of i^. ruticilla, while the colouring 

 of the upper plumage is almost an exact counterpart of Seisu-

 is brown, and the legs are very pale : the wings are short. Total

 eye and the upper part of the ears, which are rufous : the 

 whole of the throat is bright yellow as far as the breast.
