PASSERCULUS SAVANNA. ( Wils .) 
Savanna Sparrow. 
Adult Male. — General plumage streaked with blackish and bay; 
below, buff, streaked with dusky and brown ; edge of the wings and 
superciliary line, yellowish. 
Length 5.30, wing 2.60, tail 2.20. 
I include this species provisionally, never having taken it in the 
Bahamas. One Sunday afternoon in January, while walking through 
a field at Long Bay Key, Andros Island, I observed a number of 
small Sparrows flitting about in the grass. Unfortunately, I had no 
gun, but approaching them as near as they would allow, I made 
them out to be P. savanna. I never met with it afterwards, but 
there is no reason why it should not visit these islands, as it has 
been recorded from Cuba.
