This bird was obtained on Fuji-Yamain July at an elevation of about 
8,000 feet. It was generally found in the scrub willows and has aspar- 
row-like chirping note. Later in the season we obtained it at a much 
lower elevation in Shinshiu. 
It does not seem to be a common bird; not more than one or two speci- 
mens are ever seen at a time.

prepared by natives, and were so moth-eaten that they had to be de- 
stroyed. I identified them as belonging to this species. One specimen 
yas subsequently obtained in Shinshiu. It was shot on the summit of
