ButIs of Manchuria. 425 



Iris brown ; feet blackish brown ; bill dark horn-brown. 



As this Thrush breeds in Siberia (its eggs were first taken 

 by Mr. Popham in 1875 in the valley of the Yeuesei) and 

 migrates in winter to China and Japan, I fully expected 

 to find it in Manchuria as a migrant ; but it was somewhat 

 surprising to procure it there as late as May 19tli — a date 

 which suggests a possibility of its remaining to nest in the 

 mountains of North Manchuria.

 These two examples, obtained by Sir Evan James, are both 

 fledglings and could only just have left the nest when shot. 

 Seebohm examined them and described them in his ' Mono- 

 graph of the Turdidse' (vol. ii. p. 186). He was doubtless 

 able to assign them to the present species by the character- 

 istic broad white tips to their tail-feathers. 



They were shot in the valley of the Sungari, about seventy 

 miles from the source of the river.
