RICHARD’S PIPIT. 
PLATE LXVII. 
Anthus Ricardi, : , Furmine. Brwicx.. SELBY. 
THE eggs are described as being of a reddish white 
ground colour, speckled with darker red and light 
brown. 
Professor Thieneman figures two, both much resem- 
bling each other, but the one of a slightly darker shade 
than the other. 
In the one the ground colour seems to be pale bluish 
grey, mottled all over with pale dull yellowish white, 
and dull white. 
In the other, which is marked in a similar manner, 
the yellowish colour more predominates.
