Ilab. in Siberia oricntali. 



This rnco was described by me in ' The Ibis/ 1881, p. 398, 

 from spoeinieiis obtained in the ishmd of Askold, as well as 

 xi|)oii the mainland of Eastern Siberia, by Herr Dorries. It 

 is considerably larjiertlian either/, kaleensis or I. scintilliceps, 

 and has the dai'k portion of the plumage of an intense blaek ; 

 there is also a much greater amount of white upon the back, 

 as well as upon the wing-eoverts, than in either of these 

 races ; the underparts are also lighter, and the chin, throat, 

 and fore neck whiter. In a male in my collection the rump 

 is strongly barred with black ; but this evidently disapi)ears 

 with age, the specimen with the barred rump having the 

 underparts darker, the chin, throat, and fore neck less white, 

 and the under Aving-coverts spotted with black ; it is probably 

 not a very old bird. The only localities whence I have seen 

 or obtained specimens are Baranowsky and the island of 

 Askold, Eastern Siberia.
