The eggs of the Eufous-backed Sparrow are inseparable from 

 those of the Tree-Sparrow. Of three specimens in the Collection, 

 two are densely streaked and mottled, leaving little of the ground- 

 colour visible. A third example is blotched and clouded with 

 brown and grey on a whitish ground, fully one-half of which is 

 exposed to view. They measure respectively : -7 by -5 ; -69 by 

 •51 ; -67 by -52.
