Notes on the Plumage of North American Sparrows 
SIXTH PAPER 
By FRANK M. CHAPMAN 
(See frontispiece) 
Chestnut-collared Longspur (Figs. 1-3). This species has the four 
outer tail feathers largely white, in which respect it differs from the Lapland 
and Smith’s Longspurs and agrees with McCown’s Longspur. From the latter, 
aside from other characters, it differs in having the two outer tail-feathers 
white to the tip, while McCown’s Longspur has all but the outer feather 
conspicuous tipped with blackish. The character seems slight, but is readily 
obvious in life. 
Fuertes suggests the name V-tail for the Chestnut-collared, and T-tail 
for the McCown’s Longspur, and his colored drawings for this and the next 
issues of Brrp-LorE contain small figures of the birds in the air in which these 
tail markings are shown
