Blyth's Willow Wren {Phylloscopus vin'daniis, Blyth) is a 

 very rare visitor to the British Isles, and is a native of 

 Central Asia, nesting in Turkestan, and wintering in India. 

 A specimen was procured on September 5th, 1895, at 

 North Cotes, on the Lincolnshire coast. This warbler 

 closely resembles Phyiloscopus irocJiilus^ but shows a con- 

 spicuous wing bar.
