(1592) Anas boscas — (The Mallaud.) 



Pass southwards end of October, perhaps earlier, pass northwards during 

 March. 



- (1593) Anas pcecilorJiyncha — (The Spotted-billed Ddck.) 



One out of a small party of four, undoubtedly of this species, was obtained 

 at Ayon on 6th February. I very much regret not having sent down the 

 skin as its occurrence so far into the mountains is interesting ; future obser- 

 vers might keep a look-out for it in summer on the Shandur Lake, where 

 I believe a great many ducks and other water birds breed , 



(1597) Nettium crecca — (The Common Teal.) 



Passing south in fair numbers at the end of October, probably earlier. 

 Passing north in larger numbers during March and April. A few stay for 

 the winter. 



(1599) Mareca penelope — (The Wigeon.) 

 Passes north during March and early April. 



(1600) Dafila acuta — (The Pintail.) 

 Passes north during end of February and April. 



* (1601) Querquei/ula cima— (The Garganey ok Blue-winged Teal.) 

 Passes north during April and beginning of May.
