is undefined, but it apparently ranges as far as Central Russia. The 

 Moscow specimen recorded below was marked P. atavica, Severtz. 

 (Pyrrhula coccinea (3, var. atavica, Menzbier, Bull. Soc. Xat. Mosc. 

 1833, p. 111). It is a female, and differs from true P. europcea in 

 being rather greyer on the back and paler below. I cannot judge of 

 the claims of this form to specific rank until I have examined a male.
