THE INDIAN BUTTON-QUAIL. 19I 



Referring to skins, I find that the wings of the males vary 

 from 3'0 to 3*25, and those of the females from 3*3 to 3*55. 



Of one male, I have recorded — bill ; culmen, and tip of lower 

 mandible dark brown ; rest of bill orange yellow ; legs and feet 

 pale orange yellow ; irides white. Of a female, the bill, legs and 

 feet all bright orange yellow. 



THE PLATE is on the whole fair, but the grey tint employed 

 on the wing of the right-hand figure is much too pure and blue ; 

 it should have been a grey brown. For further remarks in 

 regard to the plate, see those in regard to the plate of the 

 preceding species.
