574A C(EDEMIA FUSCA. 
§ 5677. Seven.—Utkojoki, 21 June, 1856. 
Brought to Ludwig, 18 July, by Nalis Aaron, taken as above at 
Kaakkuri-saivan-sun, on the Utko River. He reported that he saw 
and knew the bird quite certainly. 
§ 5678. Seven.—Marrainen, 1856. 
Brought to Ludwig at Kuttainen by a Lapp lad, Anders Andersson 
Rodosniemi. 
§ 5679. Three.—Palliosvaara, West Finmark, 1856. 
Ludwig’s note is that at Aotsi, 27 April, 1857, he received from 
Olli Andersen Pehr three eggs of the year before, which he had 
found on Palliosvaara, half a mile to the south-east. He did not 
know what they were, but he said that the bird was white behind 
the wings, and otherwise black. The nest was on a high hillock in 
brushwood, not very far from a lake, and had a little fresh moss 
in it. Ludwig says that the lad wished at first to pass them off as 
Skuolfi [Snowy Owl], but soon admitted that he thought they 
were Squorra (without a hint of the name from Ludwig), 7. e. Velvet 
Scoter. He also described the bird. 
[ Squorra, spelt Skoorra by Pastor Sommerfelt (Hfvers. K. Vet.-Akad. Forh. 
1861, p. 74), is the Lapp name for this species, adopted by some of the Finns 
in the form of Korri as below. ] 
§ 5680. Two.—Peltouoma, 1857. 
Out of six brought to Knoblock by Mikel Sadio, who said they 
were called Korri, but did not exactly remember who in Peldouoma 
had given them to him. Aorri is from the Lapp name Squorra— 
that is, Velvet Scoter. . 
[The other four were sold at Mr. Stevens's, 23 February, 1858, to Messrs. 
Braikenridge (2), Walter, and Wilmot. } 
§ 5681. Four—West Finmark, 28 June, 1858. 
From Lars Jonsen Keino in Kautokeino; found at Syntyma 
Lappala, a mile and a half to the south.
