HISTORY OF 
outer webs, ochraceous ; lesser and middle wing coverts, ochra- 
ceous, with a large black spot on each web ; legs and bill, of 
nearly the same colour as in the Missel Thrush ; claws, horn 
colour. Size, rather larger than that of the Missel Thrush. 
This bird may be distinguished from T. Varius, Horsfield, 
which it much resembles, and with which it has been confound- 
ed, by the greater number and smaller size of the lunated spots ; 
by the general colour of the upper surface being much lighter ; 
by the fasciae on the wings ; by the colour of the tip of the 
spurious wing ; and by that of the throat and under tail coverts. 
From the Missel Thrush it may be distinguished by its 
superior size, and by the spots being lunate instead of fan 
shaped.
