All the three specimens are rather deeply coloured, but not 

 more so than some Swedish specimens. The ground colour of 

 throat and fore-neck is biifP, strongest in the ? specimen shot 

 on June 1st. 



The length of wing is respectively 78 mm. and 81 mm. in 

 the females and 82 mm. in the male. These measurements agree 

 with those of Japanese specimens published by Stejneger,'^ 

 although slightly more variable. The Wryneck of the extreme 

 East appears, according to these fiicts, to be slightly smaller than 

 that of Europe. 



NiKOLSKi has reported this species from Saghalin. 



Three eggs were found in a nest by Professor Ijima's party
