502 Mr. H. L. Pophara on Birds 



48. Passer domesticus. 



House- Sparrows were common at Yeniseisk, but not 

 observed north of a village below Inbatskaya. 



49. Passer montanus. 



Tree-Sparrows were most numerous around Yeniseisk. 

 Three were observed a little south of the Arctic circle on 

 June 16th. 



50. ^FrINGILLA MONTIFRINGILLA. 



Very shortly after my arrival at Yeniseisk I found the 

 willows along the banks of the river full of Bramblings. 

 They remained common up to lat, 68° N. 



51. ^LlNOTA LINARIA. 



Nearly all the Redpolls I obtained are intermediate 

 between L. linaria and L. exilipes ; most of them are, 

 however, rather nearer to the latter. They arrived at 

 Yeniseisk in the middle of May in very large flocks, out of 

 which at one shot I obtained specimens approaching each 

 species. Redpolls were among the earliest of the young 

 birds found. 



52. UrAGUS SIBIRICUS. 



I shot two examples, both males, of the Siberian Rose- 

 Finch at Yeniseisk, the only place at which I saw thera. 



53. Carpodacus erythrinus. 



Three specimens of the Scarlet Grosbeak were obtained 

 between Yeniseisk and the Arctic circle — two males and 

 one female. 



54. Pyrrhula major. 



Bullfinches were seen at Yeniseisk and at Inbatskaya 

 (lat. 64° N.). 



55. PiNICOLA ENUCLEATOR. 



Apparently the Pine-Grosbeak is not so common as the 

 Scarlet Grosbeak. A male was shot near Toorukhansk, and 

 a female not far north of the Arctic circle. 



LOXIA BIFASCIATA. 



(Dr. Theel records the Two-barred Ci'ossbill at Krasno- 

 varsk and Yeniseisk.)
