308 PROCEEDINGS OF THE 



south-eastern slopes; has not been remarked by us north of 57°, 

 but on the western slope Teplouhoff found it building near 

 58^° ]Sr. lat. Probably it breeds throughout the Government of 

 Perm, Petoushok, near Ekaterinburg, and in the districts of Perm. 

 Euss., Tiirutan; Bashk., Setermen. Meshakoff has seen it only dur- 

 ing migration {pp. cit., p. 633). However, in the Government of 

 Jaroslav it is very common in the summer, and Nordmann 

 found it everywhere {oj?. cit, p. 40), Bogdanoff {op. cit, p. 135). 



Tringa canidus, L. Has been remarked by me in the Pavdinsky 

 Dacha, where it also breeds, and during migration in the districts 

 of Ekaterinburg. In Pavda it is called Kerkun. 



Tringa suharquata, Giild. I have not remarked it, although it 

 is met with in the south-eastern parts of the Ekaterinburg districts. 

 Teplouhoff found it on the Obva on 1st of July, so that very 

 possibly it breeds there. Eversmann traces it to Central Volga, 

 Kama, and Government of Orenburg {op. cit., p. 432), which 

 Bogdanoff doubts {op. cit, p. 136). According to Nordmann it is 

 rare in Finland {op. cit, p. 409). 



Tringa alpina, L. I think it breeds throughout the Government 

 of Perm, because I found it during the summer in the districts of 

 Ekaterinburg. According to Teplouhoff it breeds on the Obva 

 River. 



Tringa minuta, Leisl. Positively breeds in the Pavdinsky Dacha, 

 in the neighbourhood of Ekaterinburg, and I think in the southern 

 parts of the district of Ekaterinburg also. Teplouhoff has also 

 met with it during the summer in the neighbourhood of the 

 Thiensk village, the Pavda Zueck. Bogdanoff is against Evers- 

 mann's opinion, who says that they do not breed in the 

 Government of Kazan {op. cit, p. 136); however, they breed in 

 the Government of Jaroslav, and even in Moscow Government. 



Tringa tcmmincJdi, Leisl. Is met with more seldom, and only 

 during migration. In Pavda it is called Mujincch, i.e., the male 

 of the preceding species. 



Scolopax gallinula, L. I have never seen it on the eastern slope 

 in the summer. According to Hoffmann, it builds in the northern 

 limits of the Government of Perm at the efflux of the Petchora. In 

 Tagila, according to Beckmann, it has never been met with ; its 

 spring migration is very insignificant. I traced it in the south- 

 eastern parts of the Ekaterinburg district. See Hoffman {op. cit, 

 p. 70). According to Eversmann, it is very common (during
