" L. infuscata is an eastern bird ; but, besides in Turkestan, 

 it occurs on the Ural river, especially on the lower portion, 

 during passage ; but examples of it, as well as of L. aedon, 

 from the Ural, are lighter than others from Turkestan. The 

 most common species in Turkestan is L. hafizi and var. L. 

 philomela ; and L. aedon and L. infuscata (the latter being the 

 commoner) have only been met with in Karatau, and during 

 passage near Chimkent, Tashkend, and Samarcand/'
