can be little doubt that they are the eggs of that bird. It seems 
that J. P. Jatko found them. 
[These, the first egos of the species obtained in Lapland by Mr. Wolley, 
were bought of the Pastor in December, 1853. One of them was figured by 
Mr. Hewitson as above stated. |

Salmojiirvi, 3 June, 1854. 
Brought to Ludwig the day they were found, and named Vik/a by 
the lads with confidence: hence no doubt they saw the bird, for 
Greenshank they evidently are. 
[There were three eggs brought. What became of the other two I know 
not, unless they formed Lots 105, 106 at Mr. Stevens’s, 7 March, 1856. These 
were bought by Messrs. Parzudaki and Troughton. The third was figured by 
Mr. Hewitson as above. | 
§ 3589. Zhree.—Toras-sieppi, 12 June, 1854. 
Hewitson ‘ Eges of British Birds,’ ed. 3, pl. xci. fig. 1. 
Out of a nest of four found by Johan. He saw the bird fly off the 
eges, and it was Vikla; coming back he again saw the bird well. 
These eggs, beautiful as they are, have been nearly destroyed by the 
decay of their contents. The fourth fell almost to pieces in drying. 
§ 3590. Four.—Palojoki, 1854. 
Heiki Ollen-poika and Zacharias Johanen-poika found these eggs. 
Heiki both saw and heard the bird well and was sure it was Vikla. 
§ 3591. Hour.—Saivomotka, June, 1854. 
Found by a little girl, who said they were “ Mustatiutti,” but they 
are evidently Greenshank’s. They were given to me there on the 
22nd of June. 
§ 3592. Mour—Great Lake, Patsjoki, 9 June, 1855. “J. W.” 
The bird put off by myself in a heavy thunder-shower, on the 
great peninsula, during the couple of days in which we were lost on 
the lake. She got up screaming under my feet, and called afterwards 
vikla, vikla, vikla, very distinctly.
