oblique lateral stripes, sometimes coalescing with them in front ; the abdo. 

 men is pale rufous and white in patches, the centre of the anterior portion 

 and the sides of the posterior portion being white, and the remainder rufous, 

 but the proportion of the two colours varies ; there is, however, a well 

 marked dark median line along the anterior half beginning from the dark 

 transverse band on the breast. 



In both species the rump is rufous, and the tail brown above, white 

 below and at the tip. All the differences noticed, except the number of 

 white stripes on the throat, have already been pointed out by Blyth.
