throughout the Government of Perm, except in the woodless 

 localities. Euss., Belochvost (everywhere Orel); Bashk., Kusagan, 

 Sulgash (?); Ziridn, Varesh. 



Ohs. According to Pallas (Zoog. Eosso. Asiat., vol. i., p. 341), 

 Solgosh is Aquila chrysaetus. 



Milvus regalis, Briss. I can positively state that I have seen 

 several Eed Kites amongst hundreds of Milvus ater, flying towards 

 some dead animals in the Kaslinsky Ural. 



Milvus ater, (Gm.) Is common throughout the Government of 

 Perm. Euss., Korslien; in some parts Tsepliatnic; Bashk., Tiulugan; 

 Zirian, Tsipan-varesh. 



Milvus glaucopiis, Eversm. This is most likely only a variety 

 of the preceding species. I met with it in the Kaslinsky Ural, 

 where it is commoner than Milvus regalis, but not so common as 

 Milvus ater. 



Astur palumharius, (L.) Occurs throughout Perm wherever 

 woods are to be found. Euss., Jastreb ; Bashk. and Mestshersk, 

 Karsaga ; Ziridn, Tufpiur. 



Astur nisus, (L.) Occurs throughout Perm, but is not so numerous 

 as the preceding species. Euss., Jastrebok; Bashk., Kuger; Zirian, 

 Chungun, 



Circus cyaneus, (L.) Everywhere, but more abundant in open 

 places. Euss., Mishelavka; Bashk., Bieliala ; Zirian, Vesiasche?- 

 varesh. 



Circus cineraceus, (Montagu). Not known how far north 

 it ranges, but it certainly occurs about Ekaterinburg. In the 

 Ural it is found usually in plains close to rivers. Very common 

 in the Perm steppes. 



Ohs. Eversmann {pp. cit, p. 8) says that it does not occur in Kasan 

 Province, but according to Bogdanoff it has been obtained there 

 {op. cit., p. 51). Eversmann does not mention C. ;pallidus, but 

 Bogdanoff found the latter in the Belasheff district. 



Circus pallidus, Sykes. I think I saw this species in the Bash- 

 kir district, at the boundary of the Shadrinsk and Ekaterinburg 

 districts. 



Circus aeruginosus, (L.) Is very common on the lakes of the 



eastern slope of the Ural, but is very scarce about Ekaterinburg. 



Teplouhoff, however, found it plentifully on the river Obva (Perm 



Government), about 57^° N. lat. Euss., KameshnicJc ; Bashk., 



Kameshkara.
