AKT. 7 BIRDS FROM YUNNAN AND SZECHWAN, CHINA RILEY 29 



must belong to A. g. glaucogularis. They were identified correctly, 

 however, as later material has proved. The United States National 

 Museum contains a good series of A. g. glaucogularis, and it is a 

 much smaller bird with a shorter wing and much shorter tail. The 

 two Yunnan specimens listed above measure : Wing, 68-66 mm. ; tail, 

 78-73. Bangs and Peters -^ record this race from the mountains of 

 Kansu and Tebbuland, so it seems that it is the resident race of the 

 high mountains of western China as far south as northern Yunnan 

 and occurring also in northern China. 



91. AEGITHALISCUS BONVALOTI (Onstalet) 



Acredula honvaloti OusTAijrr, Ann. Sci. Nat., Zool., ser. 7, vol. 12, p. 286, pi. 9, 

 fig 1, 1891 (Tatslenlu and Pendjama, Szechwan). 



Twenty-seven adults, both sexes, northwest Yunnan (Likiang 

 Mountains, January-February, September and October ; forests west 

 of Yungning, 13,000 feet, May; forests of Chinhaitze, 11,000 feet, 

 May; Gou-khii-ko, 13,000 feet, Yangtze loop, April; Luddii Moun- 

 tains, 12,000-13,000 feet, August) ; six adults and nine immatures, 

 southwest Szechwan (Mount Mitzuga and vicinity, 13,000 feet, June; 

 forests of Djishigotong, northeast of Muli, 13,000 feet, July; forests 

 of Tyon-kong, Watogomba, 12,000 feet. July; Dzampe, Muli, 14,000 

 feet, July). 



The fine series of immatures in the present collection confirms my 

 former doubtful action in assigning a single specimen of this plum- 

 age to the present si)ecies.^° The immature plumage differs from 

 that of the adult as there described.
