So far as I can ascertain, by comparing notes with Dr. 
Severtzoff himself, both these refer to true I. struthersi. The 
only difference or doubtful question is the fact that I. stru¬ 
thersi has the upper tail-eoverts black, and in Dr. SevertzofPs 
description the colour of these is not mentioned; and as he 
did not bring with him any of his specimens, we were unable 
to decide this, though there is very little doubt as to the 
Turkestan bird being really referable to I. struthersi.
