302 PROCEEDINGS OF THE 



lately it has been seen in the Tagil Dacha, where it never 

 was seen before. It i^ common in the western slope up to 

 59" K lat. (TeplouhofF). Mejakoff found it in the southern 

 parts of the Vologda Province. Lilljeborg traced it as far as 

 Wuitegra, and it is strange that Eversmann should have found it 

 common throughout Perm. The latter observation can only have 

 reference to the south-west parts of that Government. 



Lusciola caligata, (Licht.) Inhabits all the Ural, and especially 

 its northern parts. We did not observe it on the banks of rivers. 



Lusciola calliope, Pall. I did not observe it, but Martin obtained 

 3 or 4 specimens in the Polevsky Dacha. He states, however, 

 that it is very rare. Further east, however, viz., at the boundary 

 of Tobolsk Government, it is tolerably common. 



Lusciola suecica, (L.) (var. caerulecula). Is very common every- 

 where. Mesch., Shakardak turgai. 



Lusciola rubecula, (L.) Is rather common on the western slope, 

 but has occurred also at the Pavdinsky Dacha. It is rare in the 

 forests of the Ekaterinburg Ural, but in the Bashkir birch woods 

 it does not occur even during migration. 



Lusciola plioenlcura, (L.) Occurs in all the localities explored by 

 us as far as BogoslafFsk, and is commonest on the western slope. 

 Some, however, remain to breed in the groves of the Shadrinsk 

 district. 



Saxicola ruhetra, (L.) Is common throughout the Province. 



Saxicola oenanthe, (L.) Inhabits also the whole Government of 

 Perm, but is not so common as the preceding species. Mesch., 

 Taltuis. 



Saxicola ruhicola, (L.) Throughout the Government of Perm; 

 and I met with it from Bogoslaffsk to the boundary of the 

 Orenburg Government. It is also tolerably common in the 

 Bashkir country, but not so abundant as S. ruhetra. 



Lanius excubitor, L. Inhabits all the localities visited by us, and 

 breeds in them, but is not very numerous anywhere. 



Lanius collurio, L. Does not go north beyond 58" N. lat. 

 Southwards from that place, however, it becomes common, 

 especially in the Shadrinsk district, although not so abundant as in 

 Central Russia. 



Muscicapa grisola, L. Has not been observed very far north, 

 and breeds exclusively in pine forests, and does not inhabit the 

 birch woods of the Bashkir country. Lilljeborg met with it at
