Hargeisa in Somali-land.

The dark race with the uniform brown back_, black throat, 
and silvery-grey ear-coverts which Mr. Hartert has separated 
as C. leucotis berlepschi, seems to me to be a fairly well- 
marked species. We have specimens in the Museum from 
Machako^s [Dr. Hinde), Nairobi (Mackinder Collection) , ax\d 
I am inclined to add an example from Wadelai, although 
this is slightly paler brown and has faint indications of 
bars on the hind-neck. I think that the brown plumage of 
these Colics bleaches quickly, and that a slight barring on 
the hind-neck becomes visible in the faded livery. 
C. affi,nis, which is never quite without bars, varies a good 
deal as regards their distinctness, and also as regards the 
black on the throat, which appears to me to become more 
distinct as the light edges of the feathers get gradually 
worn off.
