variation. I am inclined to the latter belief, but breeding material is 

 lacking to show that the two forms occur together in summer. 



214. BUDYTES CITREOLA WEIGOLDI (Rensch) 



Motacilla citrcola weujoldi Rensch, Abh. Ber. Tierk. Volkenk. Mus. Dresden, 

 vol. 16, no. 2, p. 55, 1924 (Sungiian, Szechwan). 



One male (marked female), Mount Mitzuga, 12,000 feet, Muli, 

 southwest Szechwan, June. 



This specimen does not have the black of the back extending so far 

 posteriorly as in typical specimens from Sungpan, but has the lower 

 back and rump deep neutral gray. Three males of typical iveigoldi 

 from Sungpan are not so deep a sooty black as calcarata^ and the 

 rumps are more extensively neutral gray. B. c. weigoldi does not 

 appear to differ in size from B. o. calcarata. The above specimen 

 measures : Wing, 88 ; culmen, 14 mm. 



215. BUDYTES CITREOLA CITREOLA (Pallas) 



Motacilla citreola Pallas, Reise durch verschiedene Provinzeu des riissischen 

 Reichs, vol. 3, p. 696, 1776 (east Siberia). 



One immature, not sexed, northwest Yunnan (Ndamucho, 14,000 

 feet, October) ; three males and one female, southwest Szechwan 

 (Dshizhi, 12,000 feet, April ; Briiolo-kong Valley, 13,000-15,900 feet, 

 May; Tatsienlu, 9,500-10,000 feet. May). 



The spring adults are evidently on their way to the breeding 

 grounds farther north. The immature bird may not belong to this 

 form. It is darker above than the only immature specimen of about 

 the same age that I have been able to compare it with; the bill is 

 equally small, however. 



216. MOTACILLA CINEREA CASPICA (S. G. Gmelin) 



Parus caspicus S. G. Gmexin, Reise dutch Russland, vol. 3, p. 104, pi. 20, fig. 2, 

 1774 (Enzeli, Caspian Sea). 



Five males, one female, and one unsexed, northwest Yunnan 

 (Likiang Mountains, September and October ; Fuchuanshan, 10,000- 

 12,000 feet, September). 



217. MOTACILLA LUGUBRIS LEUCOPSIS Gould 



Motacilla leucopsis Goitld, Proc. Zool. Soc. London, 1837, p. 78 (India). 



One male and two females, northwest Yunnan (Likiang Moun- 

 tains, September and October; Fuchuanshan, 10,000-12,000 feet, 

 September). 



218. MOTACILLA LUGUBRIS ALBOIDES Hodgson 



Motacilla alhoides Hodgson, Asiat. Res., vol. 19, p. 191, 1836 (Nepal),
