Ntkolski mentions Anipelis garrulus (collected by Poljakow) 

 but not this species from Saghalin. This makes it probable 

 that nei their species really inhabits Saghalin nor breeds there, 

 but that both are accidental visitors.

Not recorded by Nikolski from Saghalin ; but as the species 

 is known from Amur as well as from Kamtschatka, it mischt be 

 expected to occur in Saghalin also. It probably breeds there, as 

 the dates of the specimens suggest.
