This desert form of C. pispoletta is a somewhat rare bird. 

 My specimen agrees exactly with those that Severtzoff ob- 

 tained in the same district. The outer tail-feathers are pure 

 white, except for a dot at the base of the inner web, which 

 distinguishes it from C. adamsi.

This is a fairly common bird in the marshlands of the 

 lower Zarafschan. Flocks of these Wagtails are often to be 

 seen following the droves of sheep and feeding amongst 

 them. Thy are summer migrants to the Zarafschan Valley.
