26 Mr. J, D. D. La Touche on the [This. 



of a stream were very possibly preparing to breed. It no 

 doubt passes with the other Waders in August and September, 

 but I liave no recorded observations for those months. 

 I have, however, observed it on the 11th of October.

The Redshank passes at tlie end of March and was also 

 recorded during the first half of May 1913 by the collectors. 

 I believe I have seen it in August. 



This Sandpiper and the preceding three species were 

 observed on migration at Newchwang in the late summer 

 and early autumn of the year 1889. The Green Sandpiper 

 was the first to appear, and was to be seen singly or in small 

 parties on the banks of pools and in marshy spots.

On the 13th of September, 1915, I saw on the shores of 

 the Junk Harbour at Chinwangtao two grey Sandpipers 

 which appeared to me to be the Eastern Grey Sandpiper, 

 The Rev. Geo, D. Wilder shot an example in summer 

 plumage at Peitaiho in August 1916, and I have seen 

 two others shot in the same locality in September by 

 Mr. Hubbard of Paoting-fu.

The Greenshank passes in September and October. It 

 doubtless passes also in spring, but I have no records. 

 Mr. Sowerby obtained one in summer plumage at Peitaiho 

 on the 15th of July, 1916. • 



This Sandpiper was seen by me at Newchwang in 1889 in 

 spring and on the return passage.
