This species differs from the preceding solely in having the large spot in the centre of the lower throat pure silky white instead of chestnut, or in wanting it altogether. No difference is traceable in dimensions, wing-formula, or in the changes of plumage. The geographical range, however, is entirely distinct. The European Blue-throated Ilobin breeds in Central Europe, and is rarely found during the breeding-season as far east as E-ussia. It passes through Southern Europe on migration, and winters in Palestine and North Africa. Stray examples have been known to wander as far east as Persia and India. a,h.
