as 56J° N. lat,, and breeds as far as Pavda. TeplouhofF found it 

 also breeding under 58|° N. lat. In Ekaterinburg it is called 

 Zuch ; in Pavda, Polenskaya semenucha. 



Totanus glareola, (L.) Is tolerably common in spring on the 

 south-east slope, and is very numerous during migration. In 

 Pavda it breeds, and is the commonest species of the genus. In 

 Pavda it is called Semy-hdick. 



Totanus ochrojous, (L.) From Pavda southwards throughout the 

 Ural, but not so common there as in Central Eussia. In the 

 birch woods of the Ekaterinburg and Shadrinsk districts it does 

 not breed, and appears there only during migration. Russ., 

 Lesnay-kulick. In Ekaterinburg it is called Biellohvostick ; in 

 Pavda, Kechenska. According to Bogdanoff, Totanus fuscus breeds 

 in Boganida. Totanus calidris, at all events, does not belong to 

 the fauna of the Black-earth steppes. Mejakoff says that it 

 breeds in Vologda {op. cit,) According to Nordmann (op. cit.), 

 it is not rare in Finland and Lapland. Eversmann and Bogdanoff 

 state that Totanus glareola breeds in the south of Kasan, Simbirsk, 

 Saratoff, and Orenburg, and therefore Aksakoff's opinion that it is 

 round about Uffa only during migration is incorrect. 



A otitis hjpoleuca, (L.) Is com.moner than the preceding species, 

 and breeds on the rivers of the eastern slope. In Pavda it is 

 called Piskun. 



Phalarqms cinereus, Briss. Breeds throughout the Government 

 of Perm, but is common only during migration. Teplouhoff also 

 found it in summer at 58J° N. lat. Russ., Plavenechick. 



Limosa cinerea, Guld. Inhabits the whole Perm Province, and 

 breeds at Pavda and on the western slope of the Ural. Teplou- 

 hoff found it breeding at Shinsk. Russ. in Pavda, Sivojelesaya- 

 semenucha. 



Limosa aegocephala^ (L.) Does not occur on the eastern slope 

 below Ekaterinburg (perhaps sometimes during migration), but on 

 the western slopes it breeds up to 58J° N. lat. 



It is very common in the south-east plains of the Government 

 of Perm up to 56|° N. lat., and breeds perhaps in the Kaminshlovsk 

 district up to 57° N. lat. Russ., Evdoshka; Bashk., Kiseget. 



Limosa rufa, Briss. During migration it came several times 

 under my observation in the district of Ekaterinburg. It may 

 even breed in the northern portions of the Province of Perm. 



Machetes j^ugnax, L. It is very common in the marshes of the
