Emberiza schoenicliis {Linn.). Reed Bunting. Fine series. 



Pyrrhulinus (Swinh.). Japanese Reed Bunting. 1/3. 

 Mr. Gordon was good enough to let me have this set collected 

 by a relative of his in Japan. He first sent them to me for my 

 opinion. As there is only one type of E. schoenicUis in Japan, 

 these eggs, which are very similar to E. schoeniclus, must, I think, 

 be referable to E. pyrrhulinus. 



Emberiza yessdensis {Swinh.). Yesso Bunting. Series. 



I secured this fine series from the collection of the late Mr. Alan 

 Owston. The eggs are very distinct from those of any other 

 Bunting and some of the types are very beautiful, richty marked 

 as they are with dark brown. 



Emberiza pusilla {Pall.). Little Bunting. 2 singles. 

 ,, rustica {Pall.). Rustic Bunting. Series. 

 ,, fucata {Pall.). Grey-headed Bunting. Fine series. 

 chrysophrys {Pall.). Yellow-browed Bunting. 1/2. 

 flaviventris {Steph.). Golden-breasted Bunting. 6/2. 

 One of the most beautiful eggs in the Bunting Group. Almost 

 all eggs are devoid of marks with the exception of a delicate wreath 

 or zone at the large end. One set only is capped instead of zoned.
