Family COKYID.E. 



Subfamily C+J^RliT J I , IJNT. K. 



PICA PICA SERICA Gould. 



CHINESE MAGPIE. 



There arc six specimens of the Chinese magpie in the collection, 

 three males, taken at Seoul on June 21, 24, and 25, L883, and two males, 

 taken at Fusan on March 9, 1885, and March 12, 1884. 



GARRULUS JAPONICUS(Schlegel). 

 JAPANESE JAY. 



There is a male ol* this species in Mr. Jouy's collection from Tsu- 

 shima, taken on May 21, 1886, and two others from the same place, 

 unsexed and undated. It is rather strange that this species should 

 never occur in Korea, when it occurs so near as Tsushima. The only 

 jay known from Korea is G. brandti, which replaces this species in the 

 north of Japan (Yezo). Possibly some jay near G. japonicus will 

 in the future come to light on the as yet unknown southern coast. 



Subfamily CORVIN"^. 



CORVUS TORQUATUS Lesson. 



CHINESE WHITE-COLLARED CROW. 



There is a fragmentary specimen of this species in the National 

 Museum collection which was obtained by Mr. Jouy at Yokohama, 

 Japan. It seems most probable that is was an escaped cage bird, 

 though, there is no reason why this species should not be found, at 

 least occasionally, in southern Japan. 



CORVUS CORONE ORIENTALIS Eversmann. 

 EASTERN CARRION CROW. 



There are four specimens of this bird in Mr. Jouy's collection, tal 

 at Seoul and Fusan in February, July, November, and December. 



CORVUS MACRORHYNCHOS JAPONENSIS Bonaparte. 

 JAPANESE RAVEN. 



Mr. Jouy collected two birds of this species at Seoul on July '_'7, 

 lss:;. 



COLOSUS DAUURICUS (Pallas). 

 PALLAS' JACKDAW. 



Pallas' Jackdaw is represented in the collection by six specimens, 

 a male and three females taken between Seoul and Fusan on Novem- 

 ber 22 and 23, L883, and a female taken at Fusan on February II, 

 1884. 



I can not- help inclining toward the belief, already several times 

 expressed by others, that the following is but a color phase of this
