456 Mr. H. L. Popham on the 



and brought to the Yeniseisk Museum. It was new to the 

 collection there, as well as to my list. 



104. "^Spatula clypeata (Linn.). 



Shovelers w^ere common at Yeniseisk, and some newly- 

 fledged young were obtained in lat. 66° 25' N. 



106. QuERQUEDULA ciRciA Linn. 



We often saw Garganeys at Yeniseisk. 



107. Q,u:erquedula Formosa (Georgi). 



It was rather surprising to meet with Baikal Teal so far 

 north as lat. 70° N. 



111. "^FuLiGULA cristata (Leach). 



Tufted Ducks were plentiful at Yeniseisk and up to 

 Doodinka (lat. 69°30'N.). 



120 a. Columba sp. inc. 



During our drive from Yeniseisk to Krasnoyarsk we saw 

 some Doves^ but were unable to determine the species. 



124. Tetrao TETRix Liuu. 



1900 was an unusually good season for Black Grouse in 

 the Yeniseisk forest. 



124a. ? Porzana maruetta (Leach). 



At Yeniseisk we heard what we thought was a Spotted. 

 CrakCj but could not get a sight of the bird^ which successfully 

 eluded all our efforts to make it break cover. 



125 a. Fulica atra Linn. 



A Coot was seen swimming on the river near Yeniseisk. 



128. ^Charadrius fulvus Gmel. 



A Golden Plover, having some of the axillaries white and 

 some smoky-grey, was shot from its nest at Doodinka. 

 This bird is supposed by Mr. Dresser to be a hybrid between 

 Charadrius pluvialis and Charadrius fulvus. The eggs 

 taken from this nest resemble those of Charadiius pluvialis, 

 and measure from 1*88 in. to 1-96 in. in length by 1'45 in 

 breadth, dimensions which correspond very nearly to the 

 size of eggs of the Lesser Golden Plover.
