"I have much pleasure of sending you by post to-day a specimen of a Stiff-tailed Duck (Erismatura leucocephala), shot at Sarghada, Shahpur, District on February 7, 1930. Capt. Taylor and myself bagged 2½ brace. I have personally only once before come across a specimen in the North of India in the Mianwali District and this appears to me to be an unusually large bag,,. Nowshera, N.W.F.P., W. E. FLEMMING February 10, 1930 Lt.-Col., 3/17 Dogra Regiment PS. The location is approximately selected on the map based on available details with observation due to lack of coordinates. The name Sarghada = Sargodha. The species name, both common English and scientific, has been updated due to taxonomic changes. If you know about the Mianwali observation details, please feel free to email me.
